“I understand God's heart more because this is what God deals with on a daily basis.”

As you build towards sexual integrity, it’s best to have an accountability group or accountability partner to help you throughout the process. And Melissa Manor shares more about the positives of having an accountability partner for women.

An accountability partner isn’t someone who’s going to “tell you off” or lecture you on what’s good or bad, or what you should and shouldn’t do. An accountability partner is someone you will journey with as you sift through the challenges today’s world and culture pose.

Women in particular have a more difficult time to come forward with questions about their sexual integrity due to the surmounting pressure brought about by peers and society in general. This is why having a Women’s Accountability Partner makes a world of difference.

  • An accountability partner is holding someone's hand and provides love and support while on that journey towards sexual integrity or porn recovery and sexual integrity support [12:14] 
  • Don't over commit but also you should push yourself [7:44]
  • There is a deep friendship and connection formed out of the healthy-give and take relationship [9:43]
  • Sharing not just struggles but who you are as a person [10:18]
  • Difference between men who struggle with porn or masturbation and women: [10:57]
    • For men, you feel like you're stuck in a prison and you're trapped by this, but you know that you're in prison with other people
    • For women, it's like you're in the same prison, but you're in solitary confinement
  • Porn and masturbation is such an undiscussed topic but so many people are struggling with it [11:24]
  • Remind people they are not alone and someone is there for them with their struggles [12:34]
  • Accountability Partners also share their own story and open up about their own journeys and challenges [13:55]
  • The crisis of sexual integrity is more prevalent in the younger generation and they don't even know what's going on [18:19]
  • Encouraging people to sign up and become accountability partners
