The one thing David had promised he would never do was ruin his marriage. But when his addiction to sex and pornography hijacked his self-control, he found himself doing just that. David thought maybe he could simply get over his addiction without help from anyone. That is when he learned that confession is the first and vital step to recovery.
Step 1 – Honesty: Admit that you, of yourself, are powerless to overcome your addictions and that your life has become unmanageable.

Novak Djokovic is widely considered the greatest tennis player of all time, with a record 24 major tournament championships, and 428 weeks ranked as the #1 player in the world. Among his many accolades is a record you won’t hear much about. Over the totality of his career, Djokovic won the highest percentage of points played of any player who ever picked up a racket. The surprising part is the actual number.
55 percent.
That means that the greatest tennis player of all time still lost 45 percent of his points.
Let that be a lesson to the perfectionist who is living inside of you. While this is not a free pass to sin or relapse, it is important to remember that recovery is about progress, not perfection. Take it from the wisest of the wise. Solomon lamented, “Surely there is not a righteous man on earth who does good and never sins” (Ecclesiastes 7:20).
Recovery Step: Go win the next point.
Restored Wives Group
I highly recommend this group for the wives of men attending Castimonia. I have received excellent feedback from Castimonia members whose wives participate in the group, and I have personally spoken with the founder. I appreciate and support her strong focus on helping women find their identity in Christ.
