A Path Forward
You are deeply valued, and your journey matters. Whether you choose to read, connect with a church, join a group, seek counseling, or reach out to us, each step moves you closer to the wholeness and peace God intends for you. We’re here to walk alongside you with compassion and hope.
- Explore Dr. Juli Slattery’s book Rethinking Sexuality. This book offers a compassionate, biblical perspective, helping you:
- Understand that every sexual question is also a spiritual one.
- Grasp the broader picture of sexual challenges and wholeness.
- Reclaim your sexuality as part of God’s beautiful design.
- Connect with a Local Church Research churches in your area to find a community that aligns with your values. Visit their websites or social media pages to explore their beliefs, ministries, and opportunities for connection. Look for welcoming environments where you can grow spiritually and build supportive relationships.
- Join a Women’s Group. If joining a church feels daunting, start small by connecting with a single women’s group or single moms’ group at a local church. These groups offer a safe space to share, learn, and grow alongside others who understand your journey.
- Seek Counseling which can provide personalized support as you navigate your experiences. Affordable options are available at places like Burnt Hickory Baptist Church and West Ridge Church, which offer counseling services open to the public.
- Reach Out for Support at Paulding Pregnancy Services, we’re here for you. Many of our staff and volunteers have walked through their own challenges with sexual brokenness, cohabitation, unplanned pregnancies, and abortions. We understand the pain of straying from God’s design for sexuality—and the transformative freedom of starting over.
