Living in a porn generation? An interview with JR Mahon
This month, Youth Ministry Exchange is publishing articles addressing sexuality in our culture. Amy Sondova recently interviewed J.R. Mahon from xxxchurch.com to talk about reaching the “porn generation.” Mahon says, “We are literally growing a porn generation; a generation that think it’s cool to have porn stars inside of their brains. Man, we always say we hate to think what marriage is going to look like in ten years. These 14-17 year-olds are gonna get married in 10 years and God knows what’s going to happen to marriage.”
Mahon continues with a call to action for youth workers. He points out that we need to get beyond just acknowledging that it is a problem and actually do something about it within our local church: “the bottom line is that if you’re not getting out of your pew and back into your community and praising the Lord, then you’re full of crap.”
It’s a thorough and thought-provoking discussion about one of the most difficult cultural issues the church faces. Read the whole thing.
