XXXchurch: MENS BLOG
When I wrote last weeks blog "If It Looks Like A Duck" I didn't realize there would be so many questions. I believe that most of the questions were answered by me or others who shared their thoughts. But there was one question that I thought needed to be answered and that is going to be the topic of this weeks blog. In my blog last week I wrote that there were 2 types of sex drives a...
I hear people tell me all the time that “I don’t have a problem with porn I just look at it occasionally” or “I just look at it for fun every now and then”. Don’t fool yourself or others you may very well be addicted to porn. How do you know?
I have listed some identifiers that may help you realize you have a problem or some one you know has a problem, because as the saying goes "If it looks...
I have been getting tons of emails asking how do I give up porn? How do i stop? I thought it was time for a battle plan. All areas of the Armed Services have battle plans ready for when they are called up to fight. They learn the layout of the land, they gather intelligence about what weapons the enemy may have, they learn their movements, and anything else they can use for attack. As with...
This week as I was thinking about what I was going to blog about I kept coming back to the subject of love. The word love is thrown around like a rag doll nowadays. I LOVE my i-phone, I LOVE Italian food, , or I LOVE....we can all fill in the blank with anything. Love is defined as strong affection for another arising out of kinship, warm attachment, enthusiasm, or devotion. Do we really have...
Over the last few months I have read blogs and posts about women feeling they have been cheated on when they find out that their husband or boyfriend has been looking at porn. My opinion on the subject has changed after hearing women share their feeling (my wife included) and paying more attention to what the bible has to say. Guys, this is not an issue to be taken lightly. We all know that...
This week I want to take one of my favorite bible stories and use it to relate the dangers and affects of porn addiction. I am going to use the story of Jonah. You know Joe, the man who didn't go where God told him to. He jumped a ship, got swallowed by a big fish and was thrown up 3 days later. Then Joe got back on track but not without leaving a storm trail behind him.
When Joe boarded that...
Welcome Back! I hope you had a great 4th of July weekend with family and friends. This weeks blog i owe to Mark Hall of Casting Crowns. Casting Crowns has a song called "Slow Fade" and Mark did a short video devotional on it. The devotional was eye opening and showed me something new in scripture and life. SO A BIG SHOUT OUT GOES TO MARK HALL AND CREW! Thanks for all you guys do in the...
As I child many of us had fun making stuff up, it is a part of childhood. Against unimaginable odds, the good guys (me) would win! My parents would get that look in their eyes when I had a red sheet draped across my back and I am trying to get up on the roof…you could see them wondering “Does he think he can fly?”
Welcome back X3ers! This week's blog was a tough one to do. I had to dig deep and bring up some pretty nasty things in my life that i hope will help someone out there this week. Also keep the families of those who have passed away this week. Now lets get started....
Looking back 1983 was a pretty good year. We had Disneyland open up in Tokyo, The A Team debut, Microsoft Word was released,...
Happy Monday X3ers!! I hope all you dads out there had a great Fathers Day! Now lets roll..
Several weeks ago i had the privilege of going with X3 to Exxxotica Miami. I had a great time passing out bibles and spending time talking with people who were interested in what we were doing there. One day while working the booth i had a guy come up to me and ask for another bible because "the guy...
