Proverbs 29:3 “A man who loves wisdom brings joy to his father, but a companion of prostitutes squanders his wealth.” (NIV) I cannot imagine a more modern common example of being a companion of prostitutes than the consumption of internet pornography. Pornography is but a collection of online prostitution aimed at stifling men sexually. Proverbs tells us that this companionship…More

During this quarantine season, more people are online than before. And without the monitoring systems of work and HR, it is not unusual to hear that…More

I met a young man recently who was struggling with porn. He professed to be born again. He wanted to be free. I asked him how his entertainment was. I threw a few popular titles his way.

We believe in the origin, the purpose and the destiny of life. Above all, we believe in an author of life for whom the world has been created to glorify.…More

A few weeks ago after preaching to a couple of teenagers and young adults, a number of youth walked up to me and asked to see me in private. One of them confessed that he had been struggling with a porn addiction. He had been invited to a birthday party at a friend’s hostel. When he got there, he found…More

Hi Ernest, your blog articles have helped me a lot. Please don’t stop writing. Often we criticize men of God when they fail and keep mum when they do well. I think it is a disservice to the Body of Christ. I’m learning to appreciate the people God is using to build me. But that’s not why I am writing. I have…More

Dear parent, your teenager could be addicted to porn and you have no clue. If that does not send shivers down your spine, the rest of the blog probably will. Hopefully the shivers will stir us to do the right thing and not repeat some mistakes we are currently making with pornography and our children. If you live in an…More

Why do some believers in the body of Christ lose control of their sexuality? Is it possible to recover? Are raging hormones resistant to the power of the blood of Christ? Pornography and masturbation addiction is normalizing the culture among many Christian men…and women too. Women too get caught in the rut of masturbation and porn. Together with that are…More

After writing a number of blogs on sexual sin and its implications, I was compelled to write a blog on something practical that many men and women in the body of Christ struggle with. Masturbation. It is a terrible struggle for believers’ that thrives with secrecy. A few people have written to me to ask about it. How do we…More

Sex is literally everywhere. The billboard in your neighbourhood. The radio. The TV. The paper you buy. The Internet you browse. The books you read. The stories you hear. It’s like the air we breathe! So the question was, I’ve already gone too far. Is there hope for me? Does God hate me? Will I ever come out of this…More
