Welcome to eXXit, the web site designed to help you stand strong in the face of sexual temptation.

Passage: Proverbs 7:19-20* (a prostitute is trying to snare a customer)

19. My husband is not at home; he has gone on a long journey.

20. He took his purse filled with money and will not be home till full moon."

Question

From whom are you hiding your porn habit?

 

Practical help

Verse 19 above shows there's at least one person the prostitute and her customer hope will never learn about their liaison — the woman's husband.

When you surf for smut, who's the person you hope "is not at home" — or at least absent from your computer room?

Many of us porn strugglers have several such people — a spouse, child, parent, friend or minister.

Why don't we want them to learn about our porn habits? Duh. We know the habits are shameful.

If you're tired of the shame — and hiding from it — here's some good news: God is ready to help you say no to porn. Admit to him your shame, then expect him to help you resist smut more and more.
