Welcome

Welcome to "Battle Blog", a project of the Men's Catholic Fellowship of Pittsburgh. On Nov 3, 2007 a initiative was launched to help men fight and win in the battle for integrity.

Our call is to reach out to men who have fallen into sexual temptation. So many hide their sin because of shame and embarrassment. We seek to confront shame with honesty, encouragement and the forgiveness waiting for you though Jesus Christ.

This problem is nothing new. Solomon was the wisest man that ever lived, but even he fell victim to the dangers of sexual lust. He had seven hundred wives of royal birth and three hundred concubines, and his wives led him astray. As Solomon grew old, his wives turned his heart after other gods, and his heart was not fully devoted to the LORD his God, as the heart of David his father had been” (1 Kings 11:3-4). Solomon’s quest for happiness through sexual variety resulted in him committing spiritual adultery against God.
At the end of his life, Solomon reaffirmed that the true secret to sexual fulfillment is found in a happy marriage between one man and one woman.

Sex is a deeply intimate activity that is best shared within the bond of marriage of one man and one woman. If you are married, rejoice in your spouse; if the love fire has died, ask God to rekindle that fire. If you are single, rejoice in faith that God will take care of your needs at some point in the future. Please don’t forsake God’s plan for your life by usurping sexual pleasures intended for the security and intimacy of marriage. Sexual sin only leads to trouble and damages your relationship with God.

We hope our ongoing efforts will be a blessing and encourage you in your battle. Please check back often for the latest updates and help us reach other men by telling them about this site.
