Mitchell shares his story with Trent of sexual addiction and attraction to children during his teens, and how that culminated in sexually abusing a child. But God wasn't finished with him, and led him through a long journey of confession and repentance.

We are Christians who also happen to be pedophiles. We have an unwanted and involuntary attraction towards children, yet despite this we have decided to obey Christ and not act according to those feelings. In no way do we condone sexual involvement with children. It is inherently harmful, and it goes against what God wants for our sexuality. Although we have pedophilia, it doesn't define us. It's something we have, not who we are. Instead, our identity comes from our relationship with Jesus. Our goal is to reach out to those who struggle in this area of sexuality as well. We want you to know that you are not alone, and that Jesus can give you freedom, intimacy, and new life.
