10 Step PFM Sexual Healing Program

  1. We admit honestly that our homosexuality is sin and that it hurts God and His Son Jesus Christ to know that we are practicing homosexuals.
    (Lev. 18:22, 20:13; Rom. 1:24-32; 1 Cor. 6:9; Jude 7-8; 1 Tim. 1:8-11; Gal. 5:18-24)
  2. We make a decision of our own free will to receive Jesus Christ as our
    personal savior (if we have not already) whereupon the Holy Spirit
    comes into our lives.
    (John 1:12, 3:16-18, 16:7-15; Acts 19:1-7; Rom. 8:8-11)
  3. We take an inventory of ourselves and make a confession to God,
    admitting our sins.
    (1 John 1:5-10; James 5:16; Psalms 32:5)
  4. We make a strong effort to read the Bible daily and to attend weekly
    worship services at our respective churches.
    (Exodus 20:8; Deut. 5:12; Heb. 10:24-25)
  5. We truly accept that God can heal us from our homosexuality and that
    we must have patience and faith to wait for that healing.
    (Rom. 12:1-2; Luke 1:37; 1 Cor. 6:9-11)
  6. We make a strong effort to rid ourselves of all homosexual-oriented
    temptations or practices, including: masturbation, fantasies,
    pornographic material, non-supportive friends, and frequenting gay
    cruising areas.
    (Rom. 13:11-14; 1 Cor. 5:9-13; Eph. 4:17-24, 5:18-24; Heb. 12:1-4)
  7. We seek, through prayer and our support meetings, to improve our
    relationship with the Holy Trinity, and to pray for power to overcome
    Satan's temptations.
    (James 1:2-12; John 8:12; 2 Cor. 4:7-12)
  8. We will have a strength to overcome the temptations Satan will use to
    attack us by involving the power of the Holy Spirit and/or calling a
    fellow member for help.
    (Luke 10:17-20, 11:24-26, 11:5-10; 1 Cor. 10:12-13)
  9. If we do have an occasional fall, we will immediately ask for God's
    forgiveness, turn away from the sin, and seek God's power not to repeat the sin.
    (John 14:14-18, 8:7-11)
  10. Once, through God's grace, we have broken the hold that Satan had on us through our homosexuality, we will carry the message of hope to others.
    (1 Peter 3:13-17; Col. 1:21-29)
