Forgiven Much Ministries (FMM) provides education for healthy intimacy and sexual development
by teaching Core Issue Addiction Recovery principles with a sexual addiction emphasis
to equip Christians to pursue God’s design for sexual wholeness.
Forgiven Much Ministries helps people find the gospel through addiction recovery with a focus on sexuality. We share truth and understanding to help people walk through what takes place in their spirit, soul and body on the journey to wholeness.
FMM’s vision is for the Church to become a safe place to know others and become authentically known. FMM’s mission, in short, is to equip Christians for a shame free witness.
