Hello and welcome to the Christian Porn Addiction Therapy Podcast. I'm Biblical Counselor Dr. Dave Jones. Before we begin today's episode, I invite you to submit any questions or comments that you have regarding porn addiction issues by simply clicking send us a text on the podcast page. Your input remains anonymous even to me, identified only by your location and a number. I'll be addressing the questions that I receive in future episodes entitled Answering Your Texts. Hello and welcome to episode 240 240. This is the introduction of a brand new program called Arise. Arise is a free 21-day video program designed to help women break free from unwanted porn use and find sexual healing. It's a place where you can heal at your own pace. You have lifetime access to Arise, so take the time you need to find the freedom you desire. It's a 21 day program. Twenty-one days of videos and worksheets full of recovery techniques and scripture to support you. And at a glance, this is what you can expect. It's women centered. We're not going to talk about the guys. We did that in episode 211, where their program, a 21-day detox program, is entitled Strive. So this is the same thing, but for women. It's women-centered. It's a safe space with other women to experience wholeness. It's completely self-guided. You go through one session a day, or you can linger as God leads. And each day blends biblical truth and modern counseling methods for your healing. You'll get practical tips, daily activities, worksheets, and reflections help you apply what you learn. So perhaps the best way to totally explain what Arise is and how it works, let me go through the frequently asked questions, and maybe that will answer a lot of things that you have that you haven't even thought about asking, and you'll get an idea if you want to participate in the program or not. Keep in mind, this is a free program. You can go into it and out of it as many times as you want, but it's something that you'll really enjoy. So why was this program created? Well, pornography is crushing women, destroying relationships and families, and harming your ability to love. Covenant Eyes created Arise as a powerful 21-day program designed to help women break free from unwanted porn use and find sexual healing. What will I get? You'll get a practical step-by-step plan to break free from pornography, lifetime access to the library of Arise, and a supportive community of women from around the world journeying together. Is Arise just for women who are addicted to pornography? No, this is for any woman who engages in pornography and or masturbation at any level. Whether you are doing this every day or only occasionally falling, that's a clear red flag that something is off internally and needs to be dealt with. You simply cannot continue to engage in pornography and or masturbation and love others rightly. And this is such a slippery slope. Porn use always leads to more porn use and more deviant forms of porn use. That's what the science is telling us. When we no longer get aroused at more vanilla forms of pornography, we seek something a little more edgy, which becomes a little more violent, and soon we find ourselves in a place we never dreamed we would be. We want to help you stop that vicious cycle before you go to that place. What age is a rise appropriate for? A rise was designed for women ages eighteen and above. Parents, if you want to show a rise to your teen, we would suggest you first sign up as a parent and then choose which videos and content to share with them. The issue is that there are some mature topics we get into, but also within the comments, women really open up and share their own struggles. So it's best for a parent to filter it. You're welcome to show whatever you feel is appropriate. Can someone really quit porn in twenty one days? Well, there is certainly no quick fix or silver bullet that will instantly break you free from porn use, and we are using the term detox in a colloquial sense. That said, we do know that in twenty-one days you can be set up for success with the tools you need to be set on the right path toward freedom. Arise is an innovative approach that combines proven and powerful tools and a growing community of women from around the world. The hyperfocus and intensity that we guide you through throughout the twenty one days is very effective. We understand very well that if you are truly addicted to pornography or drugs or anything for that matter, there will be plenty of work to do beyond the twenty one day detox. We do not claim that at the end of the twenty one days you'll be forever free from any temptation to look at pornography. We are setting you up for success with a combination of proven spiritual, psychological, and technological tools that set you on the path toward freedom and point you toward the ongoing help that you may need. Most women struggling with pornography don't know where to begin or have received insufficient advice. With Arise, we're looking at all aspects of our human condition emotions, brain science, faith, etc. to create a roadmap that you can tailor to your own personal walk to finally find the freedom you're looking for. Is Arise faith-based, scientific, or both? So many times we look at this as either a spiritual or psychological issue, and frankly, that results in a lot of insufficient or bad advice. We've sorted through all that and have put together twenty-one days that lead you to the tools, technology, spiritual insights, and the very critical proper mind and heart perspective that's needed to move beyond this issue and live a life as a woman fully alive. Can arise be done anonymously? Yes, you can be completely anonymous through the challenge, or be as public as you desire. We understand this is a very difficult issue that many, many women are dealing with. You can register using just your initials, you can use your only your first name, or you can create a pseudonym to remain completely anonymous. We do know, however, that recovery from any serious issue like this only works when there is support and accountability involved. So we ask every woman to at least find one accountability partner and we equip her with tools and technology to do that, including free access to Covenant Eyes for 14 days from the start date of their Arise challenge. Is Arise available in Spanish? Yes. Subtitles are available in Spanish for each video. Click on CC on the bottom right side of the video player. The Spanish text is also available in the downloads section for each day. Do I need to do Arise with an ally? We strongly suggest you journey through life with an ally to keep you accountable. We make suggestions in the challenge on how to choose one. It's not required, but a powerful aid in breaking free from pornography. How much does Arise cost? There is no cost. We are offering you access to this powerful tool for free. At the end of twenty one days, can I restart the Arise challenge? Yes. You will always have lifetime access to all of the videos, content, and online comments. I still have more questions. What more can I do? You can simply send me an email to Christian Therapy two zero two six at gmail.com. Or give me a call three five two four two five six eight three six. I look forward to hearing from you. Before I go, I want to offer you a special opportunity. It's a new porn addiction therapy program called Strive. Strive is a powerful twenty one day porn detox that helps men understand why they go to porn and equips them with the knowledge, tools, and accountability needed to quit porn. There is also an identical 21-day detox program for women called Arise. So if you'd like more information about either one of these programs, just go to episode 211, that's 211 of this podcast for the Strive information, or episode number two four zero for Arise information.
