After reading this post by John Dyer (Pornography Is Not Just About Lust: The Emotional Power of Images) I wanted to restate from an earlier post how we handle the issue at our house.
It’s difficult to estimate the ill effects online pornography has had on the spiritual well-being of millions of men and a growing [...]
