False Intimacy Conference - London 2012

False Intimacy is a one-day conference addressing the pastoral issues faced by ministers and church leaders when helping those struggling with sexual purity, pornography use and sex addiction both within and outside the church.  A recent survey by CARE found that 97% of church leaders believe online pornography to be a serious issue within the church, but many are at a loss as to how to provide effective support in this area. This conference, run by Living Waters, has been kindly supported by the Methodist Central Hall.
