Falling Forward

We are not currently running the Falling Forwards Programme but if you would like help starting an accountability group in your area please contact the office. The Falling Forward manual can be purchased for personal use or to use with one or two friends. See Resources page.

Who is it for?

Anyone who is dealing with any form of sexual addiction. 
Sexual addiction, other addictions and eating disorders, pornography, self-identified, unwanted same sex attraction, fantasy, compulsive masturbation, promiscuity, prostitution, anonymous encounters, compulsive sexual behaviours etc..

How does it run?

Falling Forward will follow the chapters of the Falling Forward: Pursuit of Sexual Purity workbook. The sessions will be on most Monday nights between September and early March, with one Saturday and an additional weekend away. Each session includes worship, teaching & prayer / sharing in small groups.

• Monday sessions run from 7pm to 10pm.
• Saturday sessions run from 9.30am – 5pm.
• Weekend runs from Saturday morning through to Sunday lunchtime at a venue near London.

Delegates are expected to be able to commit to attending all the sessions.

How can I join Falling Forward?

All participants must fill out the Falling Forward application form and also attend an informal interview at the Living Waters office.

How Much Does it Cost?

The cost of the last Central London Falling Forward programme was £500.00 per person. This can be paid in installments if required. However, if after training you are released to run a course locally, you can decide what fee to charge and this is usually significantly less.

How do we start a local group?

Leading this course requires attendance on our Discipleship Week, being able to personally fulfil our leadership requirements and involves building and training a local team. We usually suggest that you go through the course once as a team to discover the giftings in the team and to familiarise yourselves with the material and then open it to new participants after that. We like to come and do a team training day on site!
