The internet is one of the most useful and necessary tools for people today.
However, the internet has become one of the greatest tools for dealers of pornography. We will not know the full impact of porn on our culture, but one thing is for sure - no Christian man should be taking this journey alone. The temptation is too strong and to fall is too easy.
One of the best tools I have found on the internet - is Covenant Eyes http://www.covenanteyes.com/
They offer both a filtering software and an accountability software.
The accountability software does not filter any web pages, but it monitors the web surfing activity and reports to your accountability parter (someone you trust and someone you have chosen) the history of your web activity.
I have found this to be wonderfully freeing. It has freed me from dealing with the temptation of wanting to "see". Just knowing that my accountability partners will be receiving this report is exactly what I need to ward off this temptation.
If you have teenage boys in your home, I recommend that you install the filtering program as well. Parents, we have the responsibility to protect our children.
If you have any questions about how this works, check on the link above or feel free to drop me a comment and email.
Men, let us walk worthy of the high calling of being servants of our Lord Jesus Christ.
