Is watching porn really that big of a deal? It seems like it's a lot better than some of the alternatives, and it feels especially harmless if I'm single. Join Chelsea and Layton as they take a closer look at one of the most common questions they receive.

Fight The New Drug

Truth About Porn

Join us as we take a closer look at one of the key verses that helped Layton on his journey towards healing. We'll explore the themes of freedom and our identity in Christ.

"For Freedom Christ has set us free. Stand firm, therefore, and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery."

We are joined today by our dear friend, Dave. Dave's work on the missions field takes place in sensitive and dangerous circumstances, so his full name is being withheld to protect his family and ministry partners. In this episode we will discuss the spread and impact of pornography throughout the developing world, as well as the enduring power of dying to ourselves.

It’s time for our Season 3 Q&A! Please join us as we open up the inbox and answer listener’s questions from Instagram and Liberator.com. Thank you for another fantastic season and entrusting us with your time and attention. We look forward to connecting with you soon. Be well and God Bless!

Bryan and Bonnie Pue are the founders and leaders of The Union Movement. As a young man, Bryan was into the party scene - depressed, angry and addicted to porn. Meanwhile, Bonnie was the homeschooled Christian teen whose naivety was shattered by the sexual sin of a church leader. Though their backgrounds were vastly different, they were both deeply impacted by sexual brokenness.

As they found restoration and freedom, their passion grew to help others find wholeness and to strengthen churches and ministries who desire to do the same. They created The Union Movement for this purpose.
