Men of SOAR
Reforging sexually traumatized men through Christ’s compassion and grace to SOAR.
One in every 6 men are sexually abused as boys.
Every man needs other men to work through issues that trigger shame, anger, fear, and guilt in his life.
We no longer have to be held captive by the past actions of others. Through the redemptive work of Christ—who came to set us free—we can discover true healing and wholeness. Our mission is to create a safe, supportive, and Christ-centered environment for men who have experienced childhood sexual abuse. Through advocacy, education, and empowerment, we aim to break the silence, challenge stereotypes, and promote healing and recovery Survivors Of Abuse Restore. We promote healing, resilience, and dignity through Christ-Centered Care.
“Shame dies when our stories are shared in safe spaces.”

Healing is possible.
SOAR has guided men in all walks of life towards recovery.
We've found the following steps to be critical in every recovery process.
Understand the Effects
Recovery begins with understanding the effect abuse has on our life and relationships today; how the shame, guilt, and anger we hide inside seeps out into our everyday lives.
Find Your Voice
Abuse victims often feel they do not have a voice. They have been taught to keep quiet and keep secrets. It's possible to open up, share, and find your voice again.
Explore the Memories
It’s important to revisit and explore our memories in order to achieve healing. Revisiting memories is one of the best ways to replace the lies buried deep inside with truth.
Replace Lies With Truth
Abuse affects our core beliefs: "I'm bad", "It's my fault", "I'm dirty". These false beliefs result in shame and guilt. We can learn to replace these lies with the truth: we aren't bad or dirty and what happened was not our fault.
Feel & Process The Emotions
Despite many years of passing sometimes we’ve never allowed ourselves to truly feel the hurt & pain. We have to know what you are letting go of before you can forgive & release the pain.
Learn to Live Healthy
Emotionally & Spiritually
When we learn to live healthy we like ourselves more, our relationships improve, our shame and guilt fade. This isn't just a pipe dream.
There is help…
