Tune into the new podcast episode, Freedom from Porn. I welcome Psychologist of over 20 years, Dr. Kevin Whisman who shares how to live free from sexual addiction and is the Executive Producer of the newly released film, unDEFILED. We discuss the damages of porn, the target on children and provide resources to help you overcome addiction.
As of 2022, the porn industry generates more income than the combined revenues of ABC, NBC, and CBS and more than the combined revenues of NFL, NBA, and MLB. In the USA, the porn industry generates between $15 billion – $97 billion a year. Every second, $3,075.64 is being spent on pornography. We must get rid of the demand.
Watch the interview here:
How we spend our time:
- More people view internet pornography every month than Netflix, Amazon, and Twitter combined.
- In 2016, people watched 4.6 billion hours of pornography at just one of the more than 42 million pornographic websites. That’s equivalent to 524,000 years spent watching porn in 1 year!
The way we expose our children:
- 93% of boys and 63% of girls will be exposed to internet porn before the age of 18.
- The average age of the first exposure is as young as 8 years old.
Just how pornography has crept into our local churches:
- A recent survey found that 50% of Christian men and 20% of Christian women are ‘addicted to porn.’ That means that in a church with 100 adults, twenty-five men and ten women are struggling with porn: one in three.
How did we get this way?
Romans 1:21-23 says, “For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Claiming to be wise, they became fools, and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man and birds and animals and creeping things.”
This shows us that instead of worshipping God because He is worthy and deserving as the Creator God, mankind “exchanged” and worshiped that which was created. In other words, they practiced the sin of idolatry. All other sin stems from this root sin of idolatry – including pornography.
But there is Hope in Jesus Christ who died to set the captives FREE!
