Roane discusses the pervasive issue of pornography addiction with Ted Shimer, founder of the Freedom Fight. Ted highlights the significant impact of high-speed internet and smartphones on adolescent brains, leading to deeper and broader addictions. A Barna study reveals that 78% of practicing Christians aged 18-70 watch porn, with 90% of younger Christians affected. Ted emphasizes the need for discipleship and equipping rather than just recovery, using biblical principles and brain science to address the roots of addiction. They discuss the importance of emotional awareness, identity in Christ, and community support for lasting freedom.To learn more about the Sex, God, & Chaos team, click the link below: www.sexgodchaos.com Looking for help?

Over the years, I have walked with countless people through the pain of p*rn addiction. I have seen families wrecked, relationships devastated and lives fall apart. It is a strange thing that people like Billie Eilish, John Mayer and Russel Brand have spoken out about the danger of it. And in the same way magazines like TIME an GQ have also warned about the damage of p*rn. But lately, there seems to be less open talk about it in many Christian circles.

His background and training give him a unique and grounded approach to a holistic addiction recovery from porn. https://thefreedomfight.org Music Credit: "Funkorama" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Expanded Notes: Sobering stats on pornography: 2019 report: Pornhub has had more than 42 billion total visits, 115 million daily visits and 170 years of new content created  1 in 5 mobile searches are for pornography  88% of scenes in porn films contain acts of physical aggression  The average age of first exposure to porn for a child is between 8-11 years old. Children under 10 now account for 22% of online porn consumption for those under 18  47% of all US families claim that pornography is an existing problem with someone in their home  The adolescent brain is more susceptible to addictions and addictions at this age are more likely to lead to longer term addictions 1 Peter 2:11 “…abstain from sinful desires, which wage war against your soul.”  1 Corinthians 6:18  “Flee from sexual immorality. All other sins a person commits are outside the body, but whoever sins sexually, sins against their own body.” Guilt and shame are not the same: Guilt says “I've done something bad.” Shame says “I am bad.” The first step to healing is confessing to a trusted friend, a mentor or a pastor what's going on. If you don't have one of those men, ask God to reveal one to you.

Ted Shimer Ted Shimer, author of the Freedom Fight, is a 30 year veteran of a National Collegiate Disciplinary Ministry who has helped thousands of young individuals in their pornography addiction. His book The Freedom Fight is also a no-cost internet program that uses the power brain of science to outgrow porn and heal from the addiction. In the early 2000s, Shimer witnessed firsthand what pornography does to not only married couples, but to young adults as well. After the rise of the iPhone, becoming addicted became an even easier feat amongst millions of individuals. Countless studies have been conducted that state the detrimental effects of pornography in relationships, marriages, and even children. Shimer uses a faith-based approach in talking about the effects of porn and how it draws us further and further away from the truth of God's word and His will for our lives. In order to deepen our connection with God, we have to repress those sinful behaviors and replace it with healing behaviors such as an accountability partner or connecting with the Word of God. In our society, men tend to justify porn by stating that it's not as bad as doing drugs or drinking heavily. However, addiction is addiction no matter how you swing it. The impact of pornography on husbands and fathers has been known to cause divorces two to three times greater than if there was no porn involved. There has to be a point where you admit that you have an addiction, then find the right people and resources to help you outgrow the addiction.
