I saw this short 5-minute video of Dan Hall from the Scratching the Surface documentary; a documentary dealing with pornography and sexual addiction in the church. Dan speak about how he was caught and what he does now in his own recovery.

Christians Support of the Sex Trade
Excellent write-up on how Christians are supporting, perhaps unwittingly, the sex trade industry and human trafficking!
Christians Support of the Sex Trade
Posted by applyingmybeliefs ⋅ April 17, 2012
My church recently had a campaign to provide some funds to a ministry in India called “As Our Own”. This ministry takes young girls, with the permission of their mothers, who are highly at risk of being sexually exploited because their mothers are prostitutes and rescues them from a dark future. They can’t rescue every girl at risk, but they do save many. Here is the link to their website, please consider supporting them in prayer and by giving a little of your treasure:
We all have heard of the “sex trade”, and generally we all have a good understanding of what it means. Here is a list of its major components:
- Strip and Gentleman’s Clubs.
- Massage Parlors and Spas.
- Live Sex Shows.
- Sex Tourism.
- Prostitution.
- Pornography.
- Human Trafficking.
While most of this involves the slavery, at some level, of women over the age of 18, so much of it today does not. Increasingly girls from about 10 years old and up are being forced in some form of sexual servitude. What is also happening is that the sex trade business has become increasingly global and is more profitable than the drug business.
