The three hardest words to say...

Ï need help." Why is it so hard to admit that we have a problem with pornography? I've talked to a lot of ex-addicts, whether their addiction was prescription drugs, illegal drugs, alcohol, cigarettes, food, tv, etc, etc. They all tell me the same thing, that it would have been a lot harder to ask for help if they had been addicted to pornography.
I just got back from a trip to Ireland where I had the privilege of sharing my story. After one of the service I had a woman come up to me and tell me that my getting up to talk about my addiction to pornography was heroic. I thought, "Heroic? No, not me. I'm an ex-pornographer. That's not heroic." I've thought a lot about that conversation and, without sounding like I'm trying to pat myself on the back, she may have been closer to being right than I first assumed. It does take courage to admit that you've got a problem with pornography. Everytime I have somebody who comes to me and says they are having a problem, I can't tell you how proud that makes me for them because I understand what a HUGE step that was for them.
So, how about it, Superman? Ready to come out of your comfortable Clark Kent disguise of pornography? Ready to be a hero? Let me know.

I'm so sorry it's been so long...

Ok, I know it's been a while since I posted and I am so sorry. My wife and I are both very involved at our church and July has been a crazy busy month. First, our church does a HUGE 4th of July celebration every year that includes a theater show and fireworks display. We are both in the theater show which required us to be at practice practically every night for two weeks before the 4th. Then we just got back from a missions trip to Ireland. Our church choir did eight services/performances in nine days which also required several nights of practice before we left.
Now that we're back from Ireland, I promise to post more regularly. That's all for now. Stay tuned for more very soon.
