iPhone PornPorn…

With the internet being so accessible and hi-speed, viewing of porn has increased dramatically. No longer do you have to go out to your local ‘convenience’ store (ironic isn’t it?) to pick up a magazine and pay for it at the counter, risking embarrassment. You also don’t have to stumble across your parents private stash anymore. Nope, it’s fully accessible 24/7, 365 direct to your screen. And now with internet on the go with devices like cell phones, it’s porn in your pocket!

How do you escape the lure? Lucky for you, we’ve got a few ideas about preventative things you can do to keep the porn out of your pocket and away from your eyeballs.

OUR THOUGHTS

  1. Have a tight relationship with Jesus (which includes reading the bible, praying, serving/caring for others and hanging with friends who are into the same). This is at the top of our list.
  2. Get an app for your iPhone!
    XXXchurch has an app for your iPhone to monitor the websites you’re surfing and send details to a friend who is helping/encouraging you to stay away from porn. It’s called X3 Watch. This is pretty cool, check it out here.

KICK THE POCKET PORN HABIT
With all the apps you can get for your iPhone, this should totally top your list. If you’re checkin’ out the occasional (or regular) porn, you might not ‘want’ to get this app but inside you know you really should.

Hey, we’ll even be your accountability partner if you want/need us to. Send us an email, letting us know your situation and that you want us to help you kick the pocket porn habit and we’ll set it up!

More than anything, we want you to know:

  • You’re not alone.
  • God loves you (secrets and all)
  • God wants to free you from your addictions
  • It’s ‘cool’ to not look at porn (you’re not a freak)
  • It’s totally possible to go through life and not look at porn
  • We’re here to help you on your spiritual journey and will do whatever it takes to help you do that.

HMMM

  • How tempting is it for you to look at porn on your portable devices?
