Pornography, lust and more serious forms of addiction are destroying men, their marriages, and their lives. The result: godly men are being lost to the darkness. Men Pursuing Purity, by Ron Citlau, is an eight-week booklet, designed for men who desire real sexual purity. Centered on community, confession and the healing power of the cross, men get free, gain the tools to stay free, and gain vision to live lives of holy purpose and power. A great small-group format to introduce to your church, me

CrossCurrent is an open, Christ-centered support group for those beginning to seek grace
                                                                  and truth in their sexuality and relationships. It provided a starting point for those on the
                                                                  brink of discovering Jesus, so they would receive Him. CrossCurrent also addresses, in teaching      
                                                                  and prayer, how we can receive His Lordship (and healing) in our sexuality
                                                                  and relationships.                                     
 
CrossCurrent provides an excellent group format for churches and ministries wanting to reach out to the sexually and relationally broken just beginning their healing journey.
