James, 42

James, 42, found a safe place to finally confess years of secret pornography use and shame. In his 423 Men’s group, he discovered other men walking the same road and began learning how to tell the truth, rebuild trust with his wife, and experience grace instead of hiding.

Danielle, 29

Danielle, 29, had battled compulsive sexual behavior in silence, convinced she was the only woman who struggled this way. In a 423 Women’s group, she met others with the same story and began to rewrite her identity—not as “too broken,” but as a beloved daughter of God learning new patterns of intimacy and freedom.

Emily, 37

Emily, 37, felt like the ground had disappeared when her husband’s sexual betrayal came to light. In 423 Sisters, she found a circle of women who understood trauma, triggers, and grief. Slowly, she started to breathe again—learning she could set boundaries, lament honestly, and heal without carrying his shame.

Jordan, 17

Jordan, 17, started looking at pornography in middle school and couldn’t imagine talking to anyone at church about it. Through 423 NEXT, he met leaders who didn’t flinch at his story, helped him understand his brain and his heart, and gave him tools to walk in honesty and hope.

Pastor Michael, 51

After years of carrying every story alone, Pastor Michael partnered with 423 to build a safe, sustainable path of care for his congregation. Now he has trained leaders, structure, and support.

You are not alone

423 Communities are men, women, and young people finding hope, healing, and restoration from the impact of problematic sexual behaviors and addictions. We are committed to restoring healthy sexuality and intimacy with God and others through biblically based, confessional recovery communities.

Our goal is not to solely end bad sexual behavior, but to lead others towards a right-centered understanding of themselves, providing for not only sobriety from unhealthy sexual behaviors but movement towards the abundant life that is available to us.

Inside safe, gender-specific groups in local communities, men, women, and young people can honestly embark on the journey of self-discovery, and find healing from the destructive grip of broken sexuality in a safe, shame-free, and supportive environment.

Since the inception of our recovery program in 2009, thousands of people have experienced progressive sexual restoration and healing by joining a 423 community.
