“Risk is avoided because we’ve been trained to avoid failure. I define anxiety as experiencing failure in advance . . . and if you have anxiety about initiating a project, then of course you will associate risk with failure.”

“In 2013, a research professor at the University of Montreal wanted to compare the behavior of men who viewed sexually explicit material with those who had never viewed it. Unfortunately, he had to cancel the whole project. Why? He could not find one man in his twenties who had not looked at porn.[36] This reality makes the following study even more significant.”

“The power of thoughts is significant, which is why God warns His people to be diligent about every thought that enters through the doorway of their minds. In 2 Corinthians 10:5, Paul writes that believers should “take every thought captive to obey Christ.” The word “captive” comes from the Greek word meaning “a prisoner of war taken by spear.” It is this kind of military diligence followers of Christ should exercise over every thought. The thoughts people think matter. Through what people feed their minds, they are either being conformed to the world or are being transformed to be like Christ.”

“The box reveals itself through your poking, and as you get better at it, you not only get smarter but also gain ownership. Ownership doesn’t have to be equity or even control. Ownership comes from understanding and from having the power to make things happen.”

“The Christian Porn Problem It might come as no surprise that there is virtually no difference in monthly porn use among non-Christian men (65%) versus Christian men (64%).[32] In fact, it might even be worse than the published statistics indicate. The Freedom Fight recently conducted a survey of over 750 Christian college men from over thirty different campuses across the country. Each of the men we surveyed was involved in a campus ministry, and each considered their faith to be a vital element in their lives. Many of them were leaders in their ministries. What we found was alarming—89% of the growing Christian men we surveyed watch porn, at least occasionally. More than six in ten view it at least weekly. More than half of these practicing Christian men say they are addicted to pornography.[33] The Freedom Fight’s recent survey of over 550 Christian women from over thirty university campuses across the US showed that 51% are watching porn at least occasionally. These aren’t just any college women either. These women are practicing Christians, involved in campus ministry, and many of them are in leadership positions. Though their faith is important to them, pornography remains a part of their lives.[34]”
