My boyfriend of over a year is struggling with a porn addiction he revealed to me about 10 months ago. I know the road to any addiction recovery is never without errors, but we have been struggling to find solid resources for battling this thing.
I am asking for your best Christian-based resources for overcoming porn. These can be for him specifically, or for couples to grow together. Really looking for any suggestions, but the more spiritually based the better. Any counselling, podcasts, video series, accountability partners and other options would be great.
My boyfriend and I truly believe that God has called us to marriage together, but we do not want to begin our commitment to Him in this way, or have children, before we can get to a higher ground regarding this porn battle.
Also, any advice for me as a partner/ female in this fight for my boyfriend would be deeply appreciated. We are becoming desperate for help.
**Edit: Here are my stats bc some people asked for them:**
- Stats: Body fat/ 5'8" tall and 135 lb, I used to lift but I fell out of love with it.
- I am a teacher with steady income, no debt
- I have been serious about my faith for the last 2+ years, pray throughout the day, and read scripture twice a day.
