I’ve often said that talent can take you to places where your character cannot sustain you. Today I was speaking with Shawn Smith, Speaker Ministry Coordinator, for Pure Life Ministries. He gave me some alarming statistics about the state of Christian families in the United States.
- 50% of Christian men are addicted to pornography.
- 68% of divorces involve meeting another partner over the internet.
- 20% of Christian women are addicted to porn.
- 47% of families said pornography is a problem in their house.
- 37% of pastors admit Internet pornography is a current struggle.
Shawn made an incredible statement – “The internet has changed everything. Barriers of entry have been removed.” Whether you are a Christian or not, the issue will devastate your influence and generational impact.

Two questions – Do these statistics surprise you and why? In a barrierless world, what barriers are you putting in place?
