Porn Sunday

I've been hard at work putting the finishing touches on Sunday's message about pornography. All I can say about Sunday is - Don't miss it. Not because the message will be all that profound (it's me, remember?). But mainly because it's just so necessary. Ed and I received a letter at the office just a few weeks ago from a man describing how he will be spending this Thanksgiving away from his kids for the first time in his life. All because he allowed porn to wreck his marriage. Recently, I heard Craig Gross who is the founder of a ministry called XXXChurch, which has helped thousands of people with porn addictions, say this: "I have never seen a single person stop their porn habit all by themselves. Not one. You can not do this alone." That's where we're headed in this service. As always, we've got great video, music and drama that will "uncross peoples' arms." If you don't know what that means, click here and here. And by the end, we're praying that before porn wrecks another life in our church, some folks will stop trying to go it alone and come into the light and find hope and forgiveness. So like we've been saying this entire series: invite, invite, invite. You won't regret making the invitation. I'm looking forward to what God's going to do this Sunday. But keep praying. I'm still nervous!
