Who We Are

Our mission at Integrity Restored is to help restore the integrity of individuals, spouses, and families that have been affected by pornography and pornography addiction. Integrity Restored provides education, training, encouragement, and resources to break free from pornography, heal relationships, and to assist parents in preventing and responding to pornography exposure which is so devastating in the lives of our children. We are also a resource that trains and helps clergy in assisting families at the parish level, so that the domestic church truly becomes what it is, the human space in which we encounter Christ.

Our Logo

The Trinitarian Center: Within the Trinitarian theology is where true love is revealed. With the trinity we have the one who loves (the Father), the one who is loved (the Son), and the love that they share (the Holy Spirit). It is from this God who is love that true healing from sexual addiction will come.

The Fleur de Lis: The fleur de lis ties a Trinitarian image with the Blessed Mother, “a lily among thorns”. That is what we are trying to facilitate and promote–lilies among the thorns of a pornified culture.

The Outer Circle: The circle is a universal sign for completeness, for wholeness, this is our main mission at Integrity Restored, to help people repair the distortions in their life introduced via pornography.

The Cross: Through the cross Christ has redeemed the world. The cross is central to our life as Christians. 1 Peter 2:24 “He himself bore our sins” in his body on the cross, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; “by his wounds you have been healed.”
