Leaving Lust Vegas...April 25-26

Tips on Staying Free of Pornography

  1. Avoid stores that sell porn, especially those that display it behind the cash register so you can see it as you check out
  2. Don't surf the internet alone
  3. Avoid sexually explicit movies (usually R rated and some PG rated)
  4. Avoid looking at people in a sexual manner. If you can't look at a person without having sexual thoughts, then don't look at all!
  5. If married, avoid being separated from your spouse, especially in the evening
  6. Avoid being alone
  7. Pre-plan alternate, non-pornographic activities you will do when you feel the urge to view porn. Examples:

· Ask God for help in prayer

· Pray for others struggling with porn addiction

· Call a friend

· Exercise

· Recite Bible verses audibly

· Sing praise songs to God

  1. Install internet filters on your computer and give a friend the password; use a text only browser (like Lynx) if search engine pictures are tempting you
  2. When tempted, remind yourself the truth about the lies behind the temptations
  3. Take actions to clean out your home from any physical or spiritual stumbling blocks related to porn
  4. Take action to build your spiritual walls of resistance through our online courses
