XXXchurch.com is a non-profit Christian website that aims to help those who struggle with pornography. It targets porn industry performers and consumers. The organization describes itself as "the #1 Christian porn site designed to bring awareness, openness and accountability to those affected by pornography."〔 Florida Gulf Coast University.〕 == Organizational history == The organization launched in January 2002 when the founders, Mike Foster and Craig Gross, set up a booth inside the AVN Adult Entertainment Expo in Las Vegas to promote the website as an alternative to porn, and it continues to attend porn conventions worldwide. The group has given out thousands of Bibles with "Jesus Loves Porn Stars" on the cover at these conventions, a facet of their ministry which has been featured in American national media. In 2005, the independent film ''Missionary Positions'' was released, which documented the origins of XXXchurch. The film was produced and directed by documentary film maker, Bill Day. The film documents Mike Foster's departure from XXXchurch in 2004. The organization has received support from prominent Christian pastors such as Bill Hybels, Craig Groeschel and Rick Warren. Pornographic film director James DiGiorgio took photographs for XXXchurch and lost business as a result of becoming affiliated with the organization. DiGiorgio was not a Christian, but said that he was helping XXXchurch because the sex industry is "always trying to preach freedom of speech () anyone in this industry who has a problem with () message is a fucking hypocrite. You can't have it both ways." Craig Gross is also a published author, having written ''Questions You Can't Ask Your Mama About Sex'', ''The Gutter'', ''Dirty Little Secret'', ''Pure Eyes'', ''Eyes Of Integrity'', ''Jesus Loves You This I Know'', ''Starving Jesus'', and ''Open''. Craig Gross appeared on an episode of MTV's ''True Life'', in which he counseled a man addicted to porn. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「XXXchurch.com」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
