At younger and younger ages, people are being exposed to pornography. The impact is being carried through the teen years and into adulthood. Many secretly struggle with porn and those inside the church are not exempt. Too often local churches ignore this problem with some not wanting to admit its existence. For others it's a lack of knowing how to deal with it and help those trapped by it.Marriages have been shattered, families have been broken and the vocational livelihoods of many have been ruined by pornography and according to the guest on this Crosstalk, there is great risk in doing nothing. Sam Black is a renowned author and expert in the field of pornography recovery. He is the author of The Healing Church: What Churches Get Wrong About Pornography and How to Fix It and The Porn Circuit: Understand Your Brain and Break Porn Habits. He regularly speaks at parenting, leadership and men's events across the country. He is Director of Recovery Education at Covenant Eyes.Sam began looking at this issue by explaining what Jesus said about lust and what's impactful to our hearts. Jesus said that if you look at another with lust in your heart you've committed adultery. If that's you, you must think what's causing you to objectify someone else because as Christians, that's what pornography is to us. What does Sam believe is causing this great proliferation of porn? He believes we've been on a steady march from the 1950's. In the 80's there was VHS video, the '90's brought us the internet and in 2007 came the iPhone. This means that today, if we have a smart phone, we're literally carrying around the world's largest library of pornography ever created.
