FREEDOM!

"He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to release the oppressed, to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor." (Luke 4:18)

At New Hope we believe that Jesus Christ came to bind up the broken hearted and set the captives free.

We believe he has called us to fight for the freedom of men trapped in the shackles and chains of sexual bondage and for the spouses suffering in the wake of those so trapped.

Darrell Brazell explains this battle in his A Theology of Sex message. (right click and choose "save as" to save to your computer.)

HEALING!

While stopping the destructive behaviors is essential, we believe that God's greater desire is to bring deep healing to the wounds that led us to act out in the first place so that deep and intimate relationships can grow with Him and with others.

Testimonies

"I feel like I'm finally on the true straight and narrow path. I no longer feel enslaved to my baser desires. I can truly communicate my feelings to my wife instead of emotionally shutting down. And while I'm by no means cured, I do feel renewed, changed, and transformed. Plus I have hope that (with Christ as my focus), I can sustain this new me."
