Wired More Than You Think … Pornography Part II
Can I offer just a couple of stats?
Pornography consumption is rising, with a notable increase in usage among women. (27% of site traffic…women). Additionally, over 70% of teenagers report intentional viewing, 90% via phone. Growing at a market rate of 4.6 compounded annually. Overall, 78% of men and 44% of women. The entry age for children used to be 10 to 12, but with all the electronics today, it’s dropping dramatically.
Do you have a voice? Will you be one for Christ?
Let’s go a little deeper today. Because this isn’t just spiritual, it’s also biologically shocking.
“Researchers studied survivors of the Holocaust… and then studied their children—kids who never experienced the trauma themselves. And they found something remarkable. Those children showed measurable changes in how their bodies responded to stress”.
Let that sink in. The trauma of the parent… shaped the biology of the child.
Not by changing DNA… But by changing how it behaves.
Think of it like a light switch.
The wiring in the wall—that’s your DNA.
But the switch? That can be turned on or off based on experience.
And here’s the part we don’t talk about enough…
When you have children…
Some of those switches get passed down.
Your kids don’t just inherit your eye color. They inherit the position of your switches. Now bring that into the world we’re living in.
Years of exposure.
Years of secrecy.
Years of shame cycles.
That doesn’t just stay in your mind… It shapes your responses.
Your stress.
Your coping.
Your relationships.
And your children grow up inside that environment. I pray you are listening…deeply.
Scripture has been saying this long before science caught up:
Exodus 34:7 — “Visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children… to the third and fourth generation.”
And then it gives us hope: Ezekiel 18:14 — A son can see the sins of his father… and choose differently.
So this is not about condemnation. It’s about clarity.
Because the same way patterns are passed down… Healing can be passed down, too.
When a man begins to deal with his struggles…
when he brings darkness into the light…
when he stops hiding and starts healing…
Something shifts…Not just in him…But in his home.
James 5:16 — “Confess your sins to one another… that you may be healed.”
Healing isn’t just private. It becomes generational. So the question isn’t just:
“What am I struggling with?”
It’s: “What am I passing on?”
I know…WHAT…Really? That happens? I have not really researched this topic for 6 years and I don’t want to overwhelm you. This SIN is overwhelming. It is the log in the eye of the country and the world. It is not just a prayer issue… We MUST be intentional about guarding our hearts and preparing our families for the invasion…the pandemic that has already hit America and our families.
I have added some websites and built-in and third-party tools that can provide a necessary safety net: You have a voice? Will you be one for Christ?
