The headline made it a punchline: a man crushed under his own porn collection. The truth was quieter and far worse.

Porn RecoveryYou Wont Believe What These Men Have to Say
At the Set Free Summit, three men stepped in front of a camera and said out loud what most men spend years hiding. A group leader, a husband whose secret had just come out, a campus worker marked by the blacksmith scene. Different stories, one freedom. Here is what they wanted you to hear.
Porn RecoveryChurch’s Dirty Little Secret: Set Free Summit Statistics

Porn RecoveryThe Conquer Series Brings Its Porn Message to Broadcasters
A Vietnam-era military vehicle in a convention hall and a sign no one could walk past: the next generation is not watching Christian TV, they're watching porn.

Porn RecoveryPastor’s Porn Use Exposed – How God Is Using Him Now
He was pastoring a church while nursing a porn addiction and outrunning an affair, and he never got to choose the moment of confession. He was exposed.

Porn RecoveryPastor Barely Escapes Death In Underwater Cave (VIDEO)
A rope around the leg, a cave with no air left, and one lesson that has shaped thousands of men since: pulling harder is what tightens a noose. That near-death escape became the picture behind one of the Conquer Series' hardest truths about porn addiction, and the science now agrees with it.

Porn RecoveryPorn in Churches: Filmmakers Rally Pastors to Fight Back
The numbers that started it: 50 percent of pastors and 68 percent of Christian men visiting internet pornography every week. A group of filmmakers spent two years answering them, not with another behavior-modification program, but with a cinematic course built to show men how to retrain a brain already hooked.
Porn RecoveryMy Conversation with Jesus
A repairman came by the house for a small job, and the conversation drifted to God. His question was the one most people stop at: there are too many religions, so how would anyone know which one is true?

Porn RecoveryWhat’s The Biggest Problem Christian Men Face Today?
Everyone in the church knows about it. Almost nobody says it out loud. The biggest problem Christian men face is not a lack of sincerity, and it will not be solved by another round of praying harder.

Church attendance in America was 39 percent male. Nine out of ten churches cannot sustain a men's ministry. More than 70 percent of boys raised in church walk away in their teens and twenties, and most never come back. The numbers are the symptom.
