Faith, Christianity & Porn Addiction: Why Traditional Programs Fail—and a Better Way Forward

Many Christian men—including pastors and church leaders—are silently struggling with porn and sex addiction. Traditional faith-based programs often miss the mark, focusing too much on “don’t do it” rules, demonizing the addict part, and defining success as perfect sobriety. In this sex & porn addiction podcast, Coach Craig Perra shares why so many Christian men feel stuck, the hidden struggles pastors face, and how evidence-based models like Internal Family Systems (IFS) and The Mindful Habit® align beautifully with Christian faith. Discover a neuroscience-supported path rooted in grace, forgiveness, and systems that actually create lasting change.
