A lady in my church and myself taught on porn and lust this past Sunday in our church services. We shared about our own stories and struggles, the dangers and consequences of porn, common lies addicts believe about porn, and steps for gaining victory.
We also took anonymous questions from church attenders via text message and did a follow-up video answering the questions on our church’s website.
