Pornography Issues XXXChurch.com
XXXchurch exists to bring awareness, openness, accountability and recovery to the church, society and individuals in the issues of pornography and to begin to provide solutions through non-judgmental and creative means.
Our Target
Teenagers
Fact of life is that teens like to look at porno. Hey, who doesn't? The problem is that nobody is giving them the other side of the story. We tell them to stay away from crack and not to drink too much, but how come no one is letting them know that Porn Boulevard is a dead end?
The Dabblers
Hey a little porn never hurt anybody, right? C'mon dude! Get a clue. A little porn is like a little heroine. It's gonna jack you up one way or the other. I know this may be a surprise to some of you, but you can't have your cake and eat it too. You have got to decide what type of person you are going to be.
The Church and Church Leaders
How come no one is talking about sex, porno, hot chicks and all the other things that we deal with on a daily basis at church on Sunday mornings? C'mon now! Our society is looking for some real answers and the truth. It's OK to talk about boobs, sex and porn. Let's get real and get in the gutter to try to help some people.
The X3TEAM
Mike Foster and Craig Gross are the founders of XXXchurch.com. They launched XXXchurch.com on January 9, 2002 at the AVN show in Las Vegas.
