While there seems to be a lot of truth in it, there are some points that we have trouble latching on to, especially in light of teaching our son, and what to teach him. As well as with Kris as he is in recovery. We believe that the steps we are taking right now are where we need to be, and we will continue reading through the articles.

I've been following your blog for s...Hi Jamie,<br /><br />I've been following your blog for several months and I want to applaud you and Kris for your transparency in a time period when we in the body of Christ still tend to prefer to hide our transgressions and imperfections. It takes courage to lay it out there and allow yourself to be known, warts and all. It is our Lord's path to healing and deliverance because we can only be healed if we acknowledge that there is something to heal. By opening your mouth and speaking, you're giving courage to other believers to not suffer needlessly in tormented silence. <br /><br />On the subject of porn and erotica, I would strongly encourage you and Kris to take a look at this website: http://www.mychainsaregone.org<br /><br />This website has changed my life permanently and it is, in fact, still re-wiring my mind and heart even as I am typing this.<br /><br />I am in the same mode right now as Kris, teaching my sixteen year old son the value of godly purity. However, what I am teaching him now is not exactly the same as I was teaching him two years ago. A few nights ago, my boy and I watched the critically acclaimed movie Schindler's List about the Nazi persecution of Jews and it was deeply moving to both of us. I never watched when it first came out because I was warned by Christian media that it had violence and full frontal nudity (the Jews in the camps). Now, I can see that it was a mistaken judgment because the context of the nudity was not an intention to sexually titillate but to accurately portray what actually happened in that dark period of history.<br /><br />I could say much more, but please look at that website thoroughly and tell me what you think. Promise? (I'm very curious as to what your impressions are).<br /><br />Many Blessings,<br /><br />Your bro' in Christ,<br />Ed Edhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10717265019328783445noreply@blogger.com
