Conference Today on Sexual Addiction

PROVO — “A More Excellent Hope: Keys to Overcoming Pornography and Sexual Addiction” is set for 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. today at the La Quinta Inn, 1454 S. University Ave.

Organizers say this conference is intended to give individuals, community professionals, clergy, family members and others with tools to provide help, healing and hope in regard to challenges resulting from pornography and sexual addiction.

“Those who struggle, those who minister to or counsel them, spouses and family members often look long and hard for help, answers and hope in dealing with issues related to pornography or sexual addiction,” noted Joseph White, a professor of sociology and conference chair. “Pornography and sexual addiction can threaten and destroy healthy relationships and individual well-being. People look for hope, yet translating that hope into a healthy, functional path toward recovery can be challenging.”

Seating for the conference is limited and includes a luncheon. Costs are $75 per person and $140 per couple. Continuing education units are pending for those interested.

Interested individuals can go to: www.amoreexcellenthope.org, or contact White at 402-202-1665 or josephwhite.sr@gmail.com.
