A Brotherhood of Grace
There is a midwestern campus where a group of guys meet every week to talk and pray together. The group isn’t widely advertised; few people even know it exists. This isn’t a secret society, just a bunch of guys who are serious about following Jesus and living for him — and dealing with sexual sin and lust in their lives. Together they listen, understand and support each other in the struggle for sexual health and wholeness — but it’s not easy.
The group has only been in existence for two years or so, and began when some of the members were talking together at an ñ camp about some very personal issues. They agreed to meet together and pray for each other and the sexual temptations that each of them faced.
The group on campus has grown slowly through word of mouth. But not everyone is ready for a group where there are “no walls allowed.”
“We do not allow any false pretenses; we expect that the guys who come to our group are completely honest about their areas of sexual sin and want to pursue healing,” said one member. “We’re available for those who are willing to take the risk, but it’s difficult for some to step up, be vulnerable and trust the group.”
