Premarital Pornography Use [143]

In this episode, Matt & Jenn discuss the negative impacts of pornography use -- even if it occurred before you were married.  We also address the unmarried about how to deal with the challenges of finding out that your potential spouse has a porn problem.Pornography is a negative influence in society and may manifest terrible consequences even if a spouse used pornography before they were married.Prior to getting married, this issue must be addressed in conversation and counseling. Don’t get married unless you are assured that your future spouse has dealt with past bondage to pornography.Those of us with influence in the lives of singles, need to be a resource to help prepare them to avoid the dangers of pornography and be a resource to help young people deal with the potentially devastating consequences on their future marriages.Previous episodes about the problems of pornography:#113 - Q&A from 2022#91 - Sex and spirituality#62 - 2021 Retreat Q&A#49 & #51 - Betrayed and Betrayer’s roles in healing#11 - Dealing with Pornography in your marriageThe Intimate Covenant Podcast is sponsored by:Open Door Financial Advisors www.opendoorfa.comWhere finances meet faith and family.Please support these companies that support Intimate Covenant:Married Dance — https://marrieddance.com/?aff=29  Shop from this link and part of your purchase will support Intimate Covenant.  Coconu — http://www.coconu.com  Coupon Code: intimateconvenant for 15% off your purchase To send your comments, questions and suggestions, go to our website: www.intimatecovenant.com/podcast and click on the button: “Contact the Podcast” for an ANONYMOUS submission form.
