In 1986, Steve Gallagher authored a book well ahead of its time—At the Altar of Sexual Idolatry. It is the most comprehensive treatment of sexual addiction available, exposing the real roots of sexual addiction, showing men how to destroy the idol of lust and paving the way for a radical transformation of their hearts and lives.

Many people in the grip of sexual sin become so demoralized by repeated failures that lasting victory seems impossible. What a blessing it is to be counseled by someone who has battled through for their own victory over sexual addiction and then been trained to help others achieve an overcoming life. This 16-week program was developed for those who sincerely desire freedom but whose circumstances make the Residential Program an unrealistic option for them.

Hope abounds and lives are transformed at Pure Life Ministries. Our flagship counseling program has a long history of success for good reason. Our students are separated from familiar sources of temptation, placed in an atmosphere full of the presence of God, and discipled by trained biblical counselors who have their own testimony of victory. They focus on the root issues of their sexual sin while immersed in an ideal environment for building a new life in Christ.
