Strength in Numbers Support Groups

Strength in Numbers - for Men and Their Wives

       Strength in Numbers is a Christ and grace centered support group for men who struggle with pornography, sexual addiction and/or homosexuality. The group provides a safe place for men to share openly of their struggles with lust; pointing all to God's grace is our goal. The Colorado Springs group is led by the author of this website.

       The meeting is held Monday nights at 6:30pm at the north end of the city. Strength in Numbers is not a 12 step group, nor does it follow a program. The group is not for women, and outside observers are not allowed to participate. All who live in the greater Colorado Springs area, as well as those who might be traveling and wanting support for the night are welcome to attend.

      After opening the meeting with prayer we ask everyone to be accountable with any issues involving pornography, lust in the mind, masturbation, sex outside of marriage and/or any inappropriate relationships since their last meeting. We invite the men to discuss how they are doing in their marriages and other key relationships, as lust affects these areas. Our mutual transparency and the grace we extend to each other in our weakness bonds us together in a way few experience.
      In the last 10 minutes of our time together we all pray for each other, keeping in mind the needs and struggles that have been shared. We've seen the Lord work miracles in the lives of men and their families, just from prayer alone!
