Family Awareness Gathering For Adults and Parents

A Time to Become Aware of the Impact of Pornography on Families, Marriages and Children

Did you know that pornography:

  • Causes increased marital distress and risk of separation and divorce. It also causes a devaluation of monogamy, marriage and child rearing in the mind and the heart of the user of pornography.
  • Is a major factor affecting infidelity within a marriage.
  • Comes with an increased risk of job loss because of the use and access to the material which also creates financial strain within the home.
  • Affects children living in a two-parent home, where they have an increased risk of parental separation and divorce.
  • Will cause the children living in a home where an adult is consuming pornography to have an increased risk of encountering pornographic material.

Take time now to understand more fully the effects of pornography and how it devalues the God-given beauty of life, family, marriage and children.

Learn how to protect your children, marriage and family.

Receive talking points to help you talk to your children.
