Porn Addiction and Dating

                For some time I have debated whether I should write a series of articles on dating. But as more time passes I see more and more singles whose beliefs about dating and marriage are making their struggle with porn much more difficult. In all honesty I should not be surprised by this because my beliefs about dating and marriage made my struggle with porn much more difficult, and changing those beliefs made my battle with porn much easier.
                I now know I struggled with porn in part because I put marriage on a pedestal it should not have been on. I now know I struggled with porn because I had standards in dating that Jesus could not meet. I now know I struggled with porn because I did not have standards that God strongly encouraged me to have over and over again.
                My views on dating were filled with envy, pride and disobedience. And the truth of the matters is that the only way I could deal with these sins was to medicate the pain away with porn and masturbation.
                To make matters worse is that the way large ministries, pastors, and even my parents pushed dating and marriage strongly encouraged my envy, pride and disobedience.
                So I decided to write a series of articles to give the word of God preeminence in the subject of dating/courtship. I hope to shine the light of God’s word on the subject so if you are bound the way I was you can be set free, not by what I say, but by what God’s word says. Perhaps you are like me and once you view dating/courtship and marriage the way God’s word describes it, you will have much easier battles with your porn addiction.
