Guided Road To Recovery

No Travel Required

We have been there and we know the way to freedom and healing.

Mentorship can happen from around the world through our secure and private virtual meeting rooms.

However, if you are in the area we can meet in person.

I am David Wedel. I am a bible believing, born again believer in Jesus Christ. My wife Amy and I have been married for 24 years and we have 6 kids, and we have a bible school / missionary training education.

Ever since I was a teenager in puberty, I struggled with viewing pornography and masturbation.  I kept my struggle hidden from Amy and most everyone else. Well, I did have an accountability partner for a while but it was easy to just not say the full truth and let that accountability fade away.

I believed that just me and God together could defeat the cycle of viewing porn, masturbating, remorse, promise to God I would never do it again, and falling again. Well, I was wrong! 

My shame and the stigma connected to this sin kept me struggling in isolation and before I knew it 18 years of our marriage had gone by and no one, not even Amy, knew the extent of my struggle.

God finally got my heart soft enough and made me desperate enough to confess to Amy how real and how long my struggle had been going on, and to finally come out of the shadows of isolation and seek help.

It was then that I embarked on a WORTHY JOURNEY to freedom from habitual sexual sin. I have now been free from the depressing cycle since the summer of 2017. 

The freedom from secrecy and feelings of hypocrisy alone have been worth it, not to mention a deeper relationship with my Heavenly Father and others.

5. I am concerned about confidentiality.  

I keep everything strictly confidential and will sign an agreement if you like.

6. What can I expect from you as my mentor? 

You can expect Bible based-, God centered-,interaction with me with strickt confidentiality. You can also expect that I will guide you with Truth and Grace. Truth will help you get what you need to progress, and grace will help you feel safe with me. 

7. What can I NOT expect from you as my mentor?  

You cannot expect from me to chase you. Real results, and long lasting growth come from your willingness to do what it takes; it comes from the heart. This does not mean that I won't push you at times or even make you mad. Like I said, Grace and Truth need to both be present.

FAQ

Testimonials

J.V.

A Former Pastor

When it comes to some people’s road to recovery there are several different silver bullets that one may have. For some it may be their quiet time with God, some staying busy, and for others, like me, it’s accountability brothers. 

I met David about a year ago and I saw where he was at in his journey to recovery and I wanted that. He started keeping me accountable and checking in with me frequently. Just him checking in with me when I forgot to do my daily check in was a huge helper for me. I can’t say that I have not had my fair share or relapses but knowing that David was there with no judgement at all was key for me. He understands what it’s like and he can relate with anyone dealing with the sin of pornography. If he can help me; he can help anyone!

P.

A Missionary

The ministry that God has provided through David, has been crucial in pulling me from the shame and darkness of my addiction and isolation, into the light and freedom of vulnerability and healing. Through David, God has taught me the importance of accountability, honesty, and trust, in regard to healing from addiction. In being able to trust David, God has shown me that He Himself is also trustworthy. I am convinced, that without David’s ministry, I would still be trying, and failing, to overcome my addiction in isolation and secrecy.

A Former Missionary

For 50 years I struggled with sexual addiction. David has helped guide me through this mess. Being able to just talk with David on a regular basis has been helpful as I stay sober.

A Postal Worker

David Wedel has been an incredible mentor for me these last 11 months. I struggled with the ways of the world and by turning my life over to God I have achieved a total acceptance of his love and grace which previously I had never experienced in my life. I feel so different knowing that I have nothing to hide from anyone because God knows everything about me and wants to be there for me for which I am eternally grateful.

Consider this truth from my pastor:
