93% of boys and 62% of girls first see porn before they turn 18. With smartphones everywhere, this is no surprise. What is a surprise is how little the church talks about porn and when they do, how unhelpful it often is.
Messages of "stop it" and "it's bad" heap on shame and fail to get to the root of the issue. Author and Pastor Noah Filipiak shares from his own struggle with pornography as a teen and an adult, modeling the grace and vulnerability every teen needs to find freedom from these sins that can master the best of us.
Needed Navigation goes deeper than surface-level symptoms and offers a guide to every teen guy and girl's identity in Christ. It looks at the desires beneath our desires and how only the love of Jesus can truly satisfy us and change our hearts
