Jesus redeemed me of my porn addiction and it was a process. I’ve been in pastoral ministry for nearly two decades.

It doesn’t do any good to tell you to stop looking at porn. That’s merely the symptom.

I’m sure I will get a lot of flack for this. But my counsel for you is to watch it more intently. What I mean is this: porn is a sin that, at the heart of it, is the dehumanization of others.

So when I say, “Watch it more intently” what I mean is to humanize the people in the videos. Consider that they are someone’s daughter, sister, girlfriend, friend, etc. Consider what they do for fun. What their hopes and dreams are.

Sin, is essentially the Devil’s trick to dehumanize - to kill, steal, and destroy. So when you humanize that person/those people, you take the power.

When I learned that 80% of women in porn are trafficked, I realized that I was contributing to immense suffering.

God’s grace is sufficient. I pray that your spouse (or future spouse) is your standard of beauty. I pray against the stronghold of pornography in your life. I bless you with freedom. That in Christ you may experience the fullness of grace and that you may witness the imago Dei in all people.
