The Porn Crisis Is Not Coming...It is Here.

Pornography is pervasive, permeating our culture from shop windows to web ads, premium cable shows to smartphone apps. Where once it was kept literally under wraps, used furtively in secret and shame, porn is now a standard feature of everyday life, seen by most teens and young adults as less morally offensive than failing to recycle.

The Porn Phenomenon is an assessment of the cultural place of pornography today, based on a survey of existing social science research and nearly 3,000 new interviews with U.S. teens, adults and Protestant church leaders. In this research monograph, produced in partnership with Josh McDowell Ministry, you'll find:
  • Statistics on porn use and views about porn among key age and faith segments
  • An overview of scholarly research on porn's effects on individuals, relationships and communities
  • Insights from experts and ministry leaders on what the data means for culture and the Church
  • Barna analysis of the cultural factors at play, including technology and the country's shifting moral center
  • Engaging charts, graphs and infographics to help you understand the story behind the numbers
The Porn Phenomenon study exposes the breadth and depth of porn's impact and shows that the Christian community can no longer ignore pornography's effects on the minds and hearts of the next generation.

This is an invaluable resource for pastors, ministry leaders, and parents. The Porn Phenomenon will provide you with the facts on the ground about pornography, and provide recommendations for you to help those in your congregation, organization, and among family and friends.
