For 37 years I was addicted to porn, it started at 6. Then frequently I was exposed to male nudity in my teens that branded me as gay. Although I did not fit the bill as I was very masculine 6'3`` 250 lbs and played highschool football.
But in 1981 at 16, something happened while on a family vacation in Florida and I had my first gay encounter and also met Jesus Christ as Savior. For 26 years I lived a lie, filled with depression, suicide attempts & drugs.
In 1996 I met Francine who helped me out of homosexuality and became my wife in 2002. But my unresolved porn problem resurfaced and with the advent of the internet my addiction to porn blew out of proportions.
In 2008 I discovered www.safeeyes.com where I found much needed protection for my soul and my internet. I then was led to www.settingcaptivesfree.com where I followed a short 60 day course on The Way of Purity and found freedom. I am now a mentor helping others find freedom too.
My favorite verse is : Here's a word you can take to heart and depend on: Jesus Christ came into the world to save sinners. I'm proofPublic Sinner Number Oneof someone who could never have made it apart from sheer mercy. And now he shows me offevidence of his endless patienceto those who are right on the edge of trusting him forever. 1 Timothy 1.16
