of Christian men admit to consuming pornography on some level

Porn is one of the most pervasive struggles among men in the church — and one of the least talked about. The shame around it is so heavy that most men will never raise their hand in a small group, and they'll never bring it to a pastor. So they carry it alone.
Introducing
Anchor.
What is Anchor?
An anonymous community inside your church where people can reach out the moment they're struggling.
They reach out. Anonymously.
When someone is struggling — in temptation, after a fall, or just carrying the weight — they can send an anonymous reach-out to your community with one tap. No name. No identity. Just an honest cry for help.
The community responds.
Others in your church respond with scripture, prayer, and encouragement. The original user is pulled out of isolation by their peers, everyone stays anonymous.
Deeper accountability forms.
Users can opt to continue the conversation with those who encouraged them, and also invite users to be their accountability partners. All without ever losing the anonymity that made it safe to start.
Also included
Streak Tracking
Members track their days of freedom and celebrate milestones together.
Daily Devotional
A new verse every morning to strengthen their resolve and start the day grounded.
Community Posts
Members create community posts including questions, testimonies, and support.
What your church gets
Everything your community needs. Nothing you have to manage.
01
Your own private community
Anchor isn't a shared platform — your members only interact with each other. Joining requires a pin you control, so it stays exactly who you intend it to be. Your people get the trust of a closed community with the safety of real anonymity.
02
See how your community is engaging
Your admin dashboard gives you anonymized analytics — reach-outs sent, response rates, how many members are forming accountability partnerships. You see the impact without ever seeing individual data.
03
One link. One QR code. You're live.
You get a custom join link and QR code for your church. Put it in your bulletin, on screen during a service, or in a small group. Scanning it downloads the app and drops someone directly into your community — bypassing the pin for seamless onboarding on iOS and Android.
Coming Soon
Launch resources in development
04
A launch playbook, ready to go
You get templated visuals for sharing — slides, graphics, and your QR code — plus a step-by-step guide for getting people on the app. That means getting leadership bought in, introducing it to your congregation, and making sure it actually lands.
Free for churches
Anchor is currently being offered 100% free for churches — no credit card, no limits, no strings attached.
No ongoing management
Set it up once. Anchor handles moderation, crisis detection, and keeps things safe automatically.
Built with safety in mind
Real, vulnerable conversations — in an environment that's safe for everyone in your church.
Every message is reviewed
Approved — sent to community
Not sent — moderation blocked this message
AI Moderation
Every reach-out, response, and post is reviewed before anyone else sees it. It allows genuine vulnerability — honest struggles, temptation, confession — while blocking trolling, hate, and harmful content. It understands the difference.
Crisis detected
Are you safe?
If you're thinking about hurting yourself, please reach out:
Crisis detection
If a message suggests someone may be in danger, Anchor detects it and immediately shows them a banner with the national suicide prevention hotline. The message can still go through if it's a genuine plea for help — the moderation is designed to tell the difference.
Block & report, always available
Every user can block and report on any interaction, at any time. Reports come directly to the Anchor team actively monitoring for app abuse.
Moderation can be tuned
Moderation can be adjusted to allow or disallow for specific things, creating the perfect balance of vulnerability and safety for your community.
Getting started is simple
No technical setup. No ongoing management. Just reach out and we'll handle the rest.

Questions pastors ask
Can I or anyone else see who's struggling?
No. The anonymity is absolute. Users are identified only by a randomly assigned ID — no names, no emails, no way to tie behavior to a real person except through willing vulnerability among users.
What if someone posts something inappropriate or harmful?
It won't make it through to others. AI moderation reviews every message before anyone sees it. If something slips through, users can easily block that user with one click, along with report the content.
What if someone seems to be in genuine crisis?
Anchor detects crisis language and automatically shows the person a banner with the national suicide prevention hotline. The message can still be sent if it's a genuine plea for help — the moderation is designed to recognize the difference.
Is it really free?
Yes. No credit card, no subscription, no limits on how many people join. Anchor is 100% free for churches.
How long does it take to get set up?
Once you're ready to launch, your private community on Anchor can be live in minutes! All that's left to do is share the word!
Where is it available?
Anchor is available on both iOS and Android. Your custom join link & QR code handles both platforms automatically.
Hey! I'm Jason Moynihan
Founder, Anchor
I found faith in 2024, and God has been freeing me from pornography & lust since — a battle I fought alone in silence for years before I knew Him.
I built Anchor because it's something I wish I had. A place to reach out anonymously in a moment of temptation and isolation, without the shame of someone knowing who I was.
There's so many people out there struggling in silence, and I hope Anchor can help make a dent in this battle that is so common to people everywhere. Any questions, don't hesitate to reach out!
Ready to give your people a place to be honest?
Setting up your community is free, takes minutes, and requires zero technical effort on your end.
