This plan helps Christ followers understand how to practically surrender their sexuality to Jesus. In this seven-day journey, you will learn that God doesn’t want to “fix” you. He’s not waiting for you to clean up your life. Instead, He calls you to the surrender of intimacy with Him.

Each day: pray the Lord’s Prayer slowly and with intent, list 10 things you’re grateful for, and record any reflections from your reading. These spiritual practices help break old habits, replace fear with faith, and anchor your life in God’s truth.
