Summary

The words of Adrian Rogers ring shockingly true in reference to the problem of pornography today. Unguarded television and computer screens are now the wide-open doorways through which sexual immorality invades homes like never before. But children are by no means the only victims. Every family member is highly susceptible to the modern affordability, anonymity, and availability of pornography.
