  • I kinda' went to the darkest parts of our culture

  • and into the sex industry and the porn industry and

  • tried to bring light

  • into a dark place.

  • I guess in a sense, I got to be a pastor

  • to the porn industry, and it was incredible.

  • It was an incredible experience.

  • That's where I learned about grace. It just meant going, being

  • present with people

  • at porn shows and handing out a Bible

  • and telling them that Jesus loves them and that they may not think that's true, but it's true.

  • But it wasn't until I got on the

  • the floor with thousands and thousands of porn stars and porn producers and

  • porn buyers and consumers and

  • fans and all that, that actually I

  • realized what grace was all about. I learned that people

  • in the darkest places like a porn show are

  • just like me and just like the people that I attended church with,

  • and we're all searching for the same thing. We just find ourselves in

  • different places.

  • We don't probably like to have this picture of Jesus, but I

  • think Jesus would be all over

  • all the places that we think we shouldn't be going to, like a porn show

  • or

  • a bar or

  • you name it - whatever place that seems off-limits, I think those are the places

  • that Jesus would be rushing into

  • if he was walking the earth today, and

  • as just a small little ambassador -

  • a little worker bee for Jesus - I just

  • loved the fact that I got to do that for

  • several years and hear stories of

  • porn producers who were just trying to be good dads and

  • porn stars who were just wanting to be loved.

  • The questions that we are all asking are the same,

  • and it all comes back to the truth

  • of Jesus' love and His grace and His forgiveness,

  • and I don't care whether you're a porn star or a prostitute

  • or pastor, preacher, a soccer mom,

  • a business guy - we all need the same thing and that's

  • Jesus.
