About the Organization
“The church has to be at the cutting edge of this extremely serious problem. It has to start in the church, and if it doesn’t our testimony is destroyed.” Ted Roberts
Pure Desire Ministries was begun by Ted Roberts, the former lead pastor at East Hill Foursquare Church, after writing the book, Pure Desire which was originally published in 1999.
Pure Desire Ministries is devoted to healing men and women who have become addicted to sexual behaviors harmful to their social, family, and spiritual well-being. By supporting local churches, Pure Desire is setting men and women free, so they can walk in the saving grace of the Lord.
- The Pure Desire process is based on theologically and clinically sound principles.
- The Pure Desire process addresses sexual addiction from a family systems perspective.
- The Pure Desire process develops healing communities among local churches.
