- God loves you even when you look at porn.
- Porn will destroy your life if you let it.
- God always, always provides a way out.
There are stats-a-plenty to support this basic notion, but to keep it short and sweet, most men struggle with pornography today, along with a growing number of women. Kids are at a higher risk than ever of being exposed to it at an early age as well.
Frankly, the church, on the whole, has done a rather poor job of helping. We typically treat sex as taboo and pornography as an off-limits subject. We help people remain trapped in addictions by feeding into the shame and remaining silent about the problem. But there is help.
Quite frankly, if you struggle with pornography, we want you at The Bridge Church! We may or may not ever know about your struggle, but we’re determined to be a safe place for broken people to find both truth and grace and be loved no matter what. So come on and join us this Sunday!! (Even if you just looked at porn.)
Online Resources for Porn and Sexual Addiction
One of our favorite movements is Fight the New Drug, which speaks honestly about how common pornography addiction is, and just how harmful it can be. Fight the New Drug speaks about porn from a non-religious and non-political position. Their intent isn’t to judge, but rather to help.
A very helpful, non-Christian website that explains the scientific side of pornography and masturbation is Your Brain on Porn.
One of the online ministries we recommend is XXXChurch.com. To find out how they can best help you, click the link below that best matches your current struggle…
