I've been really sparse with the blog updates lately. I'm not really apologizing for it though, just acknowledging it. It's partly due to me being super busy at work and partly due to a certain someone who has been a welcome distraction. I'll blog more about that later. For now, I'd like to draw your attention to a documentary that some friends of mine are working on called Shamed. Pornography addiction is certainly an issue that can cripple the lives of those who become ensnared, and I think we often don't talk about it in ways that are helpful for those who feel trapped by it. I think the ways we talk about it can actually make things worse.
As stated on their Kickstarter page, "Shamed will look at how to remove the debilitating personal and group shame that exists around pornography and sexuality in conservative Christian communities. Our best protection is open, honest, healthy communication on pornography and sexual addiction, empowering the people we love to SPEAK, LISTEN, and HEAL."
Visit their Kickstarter page and if it's a project you'd like to see happen, send them some monetary love and pass on the link to others who might be interested in contributing.

I'm excited to see that people are shying away from the AA-type approach to compulsive pornography abuse. It's upsetting how much misinformation about pornography exists.
