Porn and the Pastor: The Life and Death Consequences of Addiction in Ministry

As the use of pornography has risen in the church and has infiltrated the lives of church leaders, an entire host of questions arise regarding the care for those who have fallen. This book is a small attempt to examine a problem that only seems to be growing. How do we restore a pastor who has succumbed to the deadly grip of pornography? How do we minister to a man in the middle of porn addition? Is he still fit for ministry? If so, when should he return? You'll read the powerful story of a pastor who was addicted to pornography but was, by God's grace, able to overcome it and continues to enjoy a faithful ministry today. We also examine how a porn addiction affects a pastor's wife and family, and how a God-called man can guard his heart and mind against this loathsome intruder. Like a rattlesnake, pornography is not an issue to be trifled with. It must be confronted intentionally and vigorously among the people of God.
