Door of Hope Testimony:

My earliest recollections of sexual attraction were always to members of my own sex. During my teen years I experimented with other guys. They seemed to go on to normal sexual lives, while I did not. During my college years I began to cruise adult book stores and rest areas in search of sexual partners. With the advent of the internet, I discovered homosexually oriented websites and downloadable erotic movies. I became hooked, wanting more and more and becoming less and less satisfied.

My desire for new and better things in this area began to consume not only my time....these desires began to consume me. My 24 year marriage ended in divorce. I neglected the sexual needs of my wife, while seeking only to satisfy my own. I became very angry and bitter toward God and even began to entertain thoughts of ending my own life. I was indeed in the deepest, darkest pit one could imagine.

One evening, for some reason known only to God, I discovered a web group of Christian men who were struggling with ssa. I joined the group and gave a brief introduction of my self. I received an email from a caring man named Bob, who told me of a remarkable experience he had with Setting Captives Free. Following his suggestion, I enrolled in The Way of Purity course, followed by the Door of Hope.

I received a tremendous amount of support from Bob, along with my mentor. My life had changed.....for now I had hope....hope that with Gods help and grace I could break free from over forty years of habitual sexual sin. I have now been free from pornography, masturbation and homosexual sin for over four months...thank you Jesus! I discovered that for most of my adult life, I had several good Christian friends who prayed daily for me...never gave up on me.

Truly, SCF was an answer to their prayers. God loved me even when I was going through my darkest and most rebellious times, and He welcomed me home with a loving embrace and an embarassment of riches. To God be the glory for the things He has done!!
