Group Guidelines for Meetings

---

In this group, we prioritize confidentiality in groups, meaning that nothing said or done is ever shared, either generally or specifically, with anyone outside of the group without the permission of those involved. This aligns with our group support guidelines, which help create a safe space for healthy sexuality discussions.

We are here to focus on ourselves, not on others; we share our own experiences, insights, and feelings within the framework of confidentiality in groups. We adhere to group support guidelines, ensuring that our discussions remain respectful and constructive. We do not offer advice, analyze, or try to 'fix' others. Instead, we engage in healthy sexuality discussions, allowing all of us the freedom to find our own answers.

We are considerate of the need for all to share, especially in the context of maintaining confidentiality in groups. Therefore, we limit our own sharing time accordingly to adhere to group support guidelines and foster healthy sexuality discussions.

Commitment to presence allows God's fullness to thrive. We agree to adhere to group support guidelines by being here every week, on time, unless there is an urgent and unavoidable scheduling conflict or genuine emergency. We will ensure confidentiality in groups by calling the group leader to explain in advance when we cannot attend or must be late, which is especially important during healthy sexuality discussions.

We are required to complete weekly homework and participate in small group discussions, ensuring we adhere to group support guidelines and maintain confidentiality in groups, particularly during healthy sexuality discussions.

We understand the importance of community and agree to reach out in person or over the phone to other members throughout the week, while adhering to group support guidelines and ensuring confidentiality in groups. This allows us to facilitate healthy sexuality discussions.

We prioritize confidentiality in groups by avoiding cross-talk and ensuring that each person who shares receives our undivided attention. This approach aligns with our group support guidelines, fostering a safe space for healthy sexuality discussions.

We prioritize confidentiality in groups to ensure a safe space for everyone. If someone offends us or we feel uncomfortable with anything in this group, we adhere to our group support guidelines by addressing the issue directly with the individual outside of the group. This approach helps us resolve conflicts without expecting others to solve the problem or rescue us, fostering an environment where healthy sexuality discussions can thrive.

We prioritize confidentiality in groups by avoiding discussions and debates about controversial topics and outside issues that are unrelated to healthy sexuality discussions, in line with our group support guidelines.

We recognize the need to support Christ’s mission of bringing freedom to people bound by sexual addiction. We believe that as we journey, God may lead us to give of our time, resources, or presence to those equally yoked with sexual struggles. In accordance with group support guidelines, we emphasize the importance of confidentiality in groups. As we give, we not only strengthen our own journey of recovery but also facilitate healthy sexuality discussions, helping others move toward a healthier understanding of their sexuality.

When we leave or transfer from our group, we do so respectfully by first speaking with our leaders, in accordance with group support guidelines, and then saying goodbye to our group in person to provide proper closure. This approach ensures confidentiality in groups while fostering an environment conducive to healthy sexuality discussions.

We prioritize confidentiality in groups and do not preach at or lecture the members of this group. Instead, we focus on adhering to group support guidelines to foster an environment where healthy sexuality discussions can take place.
