Leader: Bro. Darryl Gaskins

What We’re Studying:
What starts out as a moral problem, quickly becomes a brain problem. Often, men who've tried to quit have failed because they don't understand the brain. Understanding the brain is so important in this battle. Men in sexual bondage go through a cycle of triggering, ritual and acting out. Discover how to renew your mind and break destructive patterns.
