About Us

After decades of struggling unsuccessfully to break free from his own pornography addiction — including 15 years while serving as a pastor — Dave Trenholm finally found hope after hearing the testimony of Nick Stumbo, a pastor who had found freedom through Pure Desire Ministries. That moment marked the beginning of Dave’s journey toward healing. The hope, help, and healing he experienced were utterly transformational. Soon after, his wife, Heather, began her own journey toward healing from betrayal trauma. Together, they became convinced that they had discovered something so life-changing, and so urgently needed, that they simply had to share it with others.

In October 2024, Dave shared his story of addiction and recovery with their church on a Sunday morning. Not long after, Heather shared her experience as a betrayed spouse. They led their congregation through Pure Desire’s Sexual Integrity 101 series and launched groups for both those who struggle and those who have been betrayed. The response was greater than they anticipated — so many people had been suffering in silence, unsure where to turn for help. In 2025, Dave and Heather stepped out of pastoral ministry to dedicate themselves fully to helping individuals impacted by pornography addiction and betrayal trauma, and to equip churches to become places of hope, restoration, and healing.

Dave has been trained as a Genesis Process coach level 1 – and is an IITAP certified Pastoral Sex Addiction Professional (PSAP). Dave & Heather currently live in central Alberta, Canada and serve as missionaries with MissionGO.
