Porn addiction
Last night was unbelievable. Our youth group at church (yeah I go to church) got to lead the worship, part of which one of the youth pastors giving his testimony. There’s more people there than usual and he starts talking about where he used to go to church before he joined ours. He gets to when he turned 12 and he got addicted to porn. He stood infront of all these people and tells everyone about how he bought magazine and surfed the web for porn. What effect it had on his family. How his parents were affected and how he still has a problem. I was stunned, but everyone was so supportive. I could never do what he did. So funny at the end, we’re all chatting and one of the girls says to him, what have you given up for lent. So insensitive. I immediately thought about the obvious answer. It was amazing too because he did all this infront of his parents and his younger brother and sister. Brave guy I can tell you.

going to church does nt make you good or bad it is what is inside of you that does.
some people have overcome their fears about tings and some of us have not, but you can gain strenght from examples like this young man.
take care and be safe

Wow I know I couldn't get in front of people and tell them something that personal. More power to him. And now I'm addicted to reading blogs and won't tell anyone about it.
