1. What Is the Freedom Programme?
The Freedom Programme is a structured way out of a habit that has taken too much of your freedom. It is built on the Church's means for growing in virtue: self-knowledge, a practical discipline, prayer and the sacraments (CCC 2340), and on honest accountability, because a habit kept secret keeps its grip.
There are two tracks. The purity track is for pornography, masturbation and lust. The gambling track is for betting, casino, lottery and online gambling. Each has a Catholic version and a version for Protestant and other Christian readers. Every part is written to meet you with grace: no shaming, no lectures, and a clear next step after every fall.
2. How Does the 90-Day Plan Work?
The plan runs in three phases of about a month each. The first 30 days are free, and Pro members continue to day 90.
Days 1 to 30: close the doors
Learn your triggers, set up filters, blockers or self-exclusion, tell one person, and get a daily check-in email with one Scripture, one step and two buttons. Every seventh day brings a confession nudge.
Days 31 to 60: rebuild (Pro)
A weekly check-in keeps the rhythm steady while you build deeper roots: daily Scripture, friendship with your accountability partner, and guardrails you keep even on good weeks.
Days 61 to 90: live free (Pro)
The focus turns outward to service, gratitude and a plan for the months after day 90, so freedom becomes a way of life.
3. Which Track Should I Start?
Start with the free tool that matches your struggle. Each gives an instant result on this page, and you choose whether to get the full plan by email.

4. How Do the Check-ins and Streaks Work?
Each check-in email asks one question: how was today? One tap on "I was free today" or "I fell. Start again" records it, and your streak is kept on our server so it follows you to any device. A day you do not answer is skipped and never counted as a fall.
After a fall, the reply page thanks you for your honesty, points you to confession and suggests one guardrail for the trigger behind it. Subject lines stay discreet, such as "Day 4 of 30", because these emails land on lock screens. Every email has a link that stops the check-ins and deletes your answers.
5. What Is the Daily Examen Tracker?
The examen is a short daily prayer of review that Saint Ignatius of Loyola taught: give thanks, ask for light, review the day, ask forgiveness and resolve for tomorrow. The tracker marks each of your 90 days so you can see the pattern of grace over time.
The examen tracker is part of Pro
Pro members see a 90-day tracker here, with tonight's five examen questions and a one-tap mark for each day. It is saved on your device.
Get Pro for $496. What Does Pro Add to the Programme?
Pro carries the programme from 30 days to 90, adds the examen tracker, and gives you the rest of Pro: audio devotionals and guided prayers, the full study library, a circle to pray with, counselling sessions with a qualified therapist and stewardship tools. You pay $49 once, with lifetime access and a 30-day money-back guarantee.
Do the full 90 days with people beside you
Why only $49 once when the big prayer apps charge $59.95 to $100 a year? It is all digital, made once and shared with every member, with no office or agency to pay for, and we are rooting for you. No purchase forgives sin. Christ does that in confession, freely, and Pro helps you keep walking afterwards.
Get Pro for $49 One-time payment. No subscription. 30-day money-back guarantee.7. When Should I Get Other Help?
Get other help as well when a habit has become compulsive, when it sits alongside depression, anxiety, drinking or debt, or when you have tried many times on your own. A doctor, therapist or counsellor is part of how God heals, and the programme walks alongside that care.
