YES... You Need Accountability
You cannot fight this battle against lust and infidelity on your own. You need accountability—someone who will walk alongside you, pray with you and challenge you to stay on track. Accountability isn't just about having someone to confess to, it’s about having someone who loves you enough to call you out, push you toward healing, and hold you responsible for your actions.
When I was struggling with being unfaithful, I turned to my friend Chris for accountability. He didn’t shame or judge me, but he didn’t let me off the hook either. He prayed for me, encouraged me, and offered support, but he also challenged me in ways I wasn’t ready for. He told me to stop making excuses, to seek counseling, and to cut off all contact with the women I had been involved with or was tempted by. His tough love and insistence on real change was a turning point for me.
Without that accountability, I would have remained stuck in the same patterns. Chris wasn’t just a passive listener—he was actively invested in my healing. Accountability like that helps you make the hard decisions, face the truth, and take real steps toward healing. It provides the strength and support needed to break free from destructive behaviors and rebuild what’s been broken.
Accountability isn't a sign of weakness, it's a sign of strength. When you allow others into your struggle, you open the door for real change.

Don’t walk this road alone; having someone to stand with you can make all the difference.
