Porn Stars Are Mothers Too...

Viktoria Knezova, Alexis Fire, and Diana Rae Espen all celebrated Mother's Day today just like everybody else who has kids, with one very noticeable exception...they are all porn stars. What is Mother's Day like for them? Are they any different from every other mother on the face of the planet? Do they not have the same dreams for their kids? Do they not worry about providing for their kids just as much? Do they love their kids any less because of what they do?

Pornography is much easier to do when you depersonalize it. You see the person on the screen as scrap meat representing the "perfect" woman we have built up in our mind, which, ironically interferes with relationships we have with actual women because the real women can never measure up with the women we see on the screen. What we must realize is that the Viktoria Knezova's of the world are people, just like you and me. They have dreams just like us. They feel pain and loss just like we do. They have families just like us and they have a heavenly Father who loves them, dreams over them, grieves with them and sees the potential they have for greater things than they could ever see in themselves.

Paul told Timothy in I Timothy 5:1 - 2, "Never speak harshly to an older man, but appeal to him respectfully as though he were your own father. Talk to the younger men as you would to your own brothers. Treat the older women as you would your mother, and treat the younger women with all purity as your own sisters." I like to think of it like this, "Would you want your mom being a porn star? How would it make you feel to know that there are men, women, boys and girls who are lusting after your sister as she's taking her clothes off?" It is so much more difficult to enjoy pornography when you realize that porn stars are people too.

xxxchurch.com is helping Wendy go from the adult entertainment industry to finding her identity in Christ Jesus. She sent the following email to Craig Gross and it was posted on their web site. You can also listen to the podcast interview with her by going to itunes.

"PRAISE GOD !!!! You guys have no idea the day I've been having LOL Satan has been really trying to pull me down today but I've been kickin him to the curb:) My Monitor which I bought back when I had that easy money to throw away....was a 32" flat/widescreen for me to do webdesign and graphics on ....well it blew out, which meant no Internet which is huge in my household LOL mainly for my own connection with other Christians and more importantly you guys:) But I ran down to where I have that spot at a local flea market and asked the owner who is a friend if he knew of any of the vendors who had a dirt cheap monitor so I'd have one until I find out how much it will cost to fix mine and get it fixed....well, HE had one himself and gave it to me for 10 bucks :) So at least I am back online and in communication with what matters most to me right now:) The phones went completely off and my job was calling my moms house to see if I could come in and work on my day off today.....I hated for them to have to call her house ! God is continually humbling me :) Michelle, I think I have the interview with X3 at 4:00 today for the podcast....if so, I'll be here, phone is on and I'm ready :) Thank you both so much for having such a love for Christ and hearts of a servant, you have no idea how getting me through this month financially has blessed me and my children:) Love you!"

Just remember that porn stars are mothers too. Viktoria, Alexis and Diana, I pray that you had a good Mother's Day.
