The Haps

With so many great things happening in this ministry it can be hard to keep track of it all.  There was our trip down under … Strip Church Training in Dallas … the Porn Kills Tour … and most recently the video launch of Sincerely Freedom  by Nick Vitellaro with over 160,000 views … where do we start? 

2013 has been an incredible year and we are anticipating even more exciting things to...

OK, real quick two changes:

1) Craig is very "TMZ" and I am very "Gawker". Craig wins(LOL) and so these will be shorter (per his request).

2) Although this is a website that addresses porn and sex, different people have various levels of sensitivities. So, what I do "shout out", from now on, it will be without links (although I will reference the site I pulled it from at the end of each post)....

Join the Launch Team for My New Book!

I have a new book coming out in July called Open: What Happens When You Get Real, Get Honest, and Get Accountable. I need your help to get the word out about its release so I’m asking you to join my launch team. “What is a launch team?”, you ask.  In a nutshell, you will help spread the word about the book, whether it be tweeting, posting on Facebook,...

OK. There was a lot of, how do I put it..."intriguing" (yeah, that's it) stuff that happened in the porn world this past week. I must admit that when I read a lot of it, I John 2:16 definitely came to mind: "For all that is in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—is not of the Father but is of the world."

Sometimes I try to make sense of it all and then...

In March of 2013, Craig Gross, Jeff Bethke and Levi The Poet took off from Washington and drove to California in a Hearse. The XXXchurch #Pornkills tour stopped in 5 cities in 5 night traveling over 2,000 miles and filling up for gas 25 times along the way. The live show is 2 hours long and was shot by 5 cameras and includes spoken word, poetry, Q and A, videos and live messages from each of...

Happy May Day Y'all...

So let's see...what's up in the media this week:

1) When it comes to the vital importance of children being raised in a two-parent household, aside from the stats of what a child is up against when they're not (there's actually a documentary coming out that addresses this very thing), there's a verse in the Bible that I think speaks quite well on the issue: "God made...

Happy Wednesday, Everyone.

So what do y'all think about this stuff?

1) My family actually lives in South Africa and so my mom and I were *just talking* about how...super counterproductive it is to allow porn channels into a country that has the most reported rapes in the world. More and more, I'm seeing that the world really is filled with not much more than lust and pride (I John 2:16) and...

Hey Y'all...

Let's get to it.

1) Yeah. I found this to be...ironically odd. R&B singer Robin Thicke recently had his latest video for his song "Blurred Lines" pulled from YouTube because it was "inappropriate". I've seen the video and yes, there's more flesh than is necessary in it but most music videos these days (and shoot, television commercials too) can boast of that fact. What I found to...
