					<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left">Let me ask you a tough question:</p>
<p style="text-align: left"><em>Do you struggle with internet pornography? </em></p>
<p>If you do, you&#8217;re not alone. Many pastors today are caught in porn&#8217;s deceptive tentacles and they feel there is no way to escape.</p>
<p>But there is.</p>
<p>I want to recommend an article that we recently published on our Insight for Living Web site. It&#8217;s Pastor Darrell Brazell&#8217;s candid story of his addiction—but more importantly—<em>of his freedom</em> from pornography&#8217;s grasp. You can <a href="http://www.insight.org/resources/articles/mens-purity/breaking-point-one-pastors.html?t=pastors" target="_blank" rel="noopener">read his story here</a>.</p>
<p>Let me also add that if you want to contact someone in complete confidentiality, you can connect with our pastoral counseling team on our Pastor-to-Pastor line at 972-473-5102 (Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m.–5:00 p.m. central time). They are well-trained and can offer you some practical steps.</p>
<p style="text-align: left">You will also find encouragement and resources on our <a href="http://www.insight.org/resources/topics/mens-purity/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Men&#8217;s Purity topical page</a>.</p>
<p>If you struggle with porn as a pastor, I know that you want to break free. I&#8217;m certain that you want to honor the Lord. Freedom is possible.</p>
<p>I urge you to begin right now.</p>
<p>—Chuck</p>
