Help with Porn
Feb 25, 2008 Uncategorized
It dawns on me that I never sent out the resources I compiled for people wrestling with sexual purity / porn, etc. Oops. Here they are. Let me know if there are any other resources you would like to share.
PureOnline
Pure Online is an online recovery workshop consisting of 15 streaming video lessons and a workbook that guides you through the 30-day program.
xxxchurch
Tons of resources and help for those struggling with porn.
OpenDNS
This is the services I talked about at Riverview. OpenDNS blocks phishing sites, gives you the power to filter out adult sites and proxies among more than 40 categories, and provides the precision to block individual domains.
X3Watch
This is the accountability software I talked about.
SafeEyes
This is an accountability / filtering software combined into one.

I was able to see the “Cock Fight” porn debate between Ron Jeramy and the pastor from the XXXchurch in Colorado Springs. Very interesting. Apparently they’re really good friends.

Noel,
Thanks for the resources…we have Norton in place and had NO IDEA how much it filtered for us until our subscription needed to be renewed. SHOCKING and mortifying don’t even cover how violated we felt when innocently launching Comcast. How can so much go unrestrained by the powers that govern?
We will be certain to add more filters.
Thanks again…your series was VERY eye opening and we thank you.

Check out Covenant Eyes. They have one of the best technological approaches (nearly impossible to circumvent) — and they’re based out of Owosso, not too far away!

Hello Noel,
I’ve been surfing around your blog here and your youtube page. Thanks for always speaking so candidly about issues that really matter to people’s sexuality, such as lust, pornography, masturbation, etc.
I work for a ministry called Covenant Eyes. We provide accountability software for people’s computers so that they can maintain and open and honest accountability relationship with others about online use. It works a little like X3watch except the program is far more robust, and it accounts for everywhere you go on the web (not just the websites deemed inappropriate).
Covenant Eyes is always interested in partnering with churches and ministries that are out there on the front lines talking about these issues. I’d love to send you some free brochures about our program so you can give them out to those who might interested at your church.
Also, I’m curious if you and your church would be interested in our affiliate program. Essentially, your church can promote Covenant Eyes software to others, providing help to those who need help avoiding Internet porn. In turn, we offer you a share of the subscription costs for the software. That money can then go to support your ministry or can go to support a ministry or charity of your choosing. If this sounds interesting, please let me know!
Thanks for all the valuable resources you have on this blog!
