Title: The Dangers of Pornography Addiction

Introduction:
Hello, teens! Today we’re going to talk about a very important topic that most of us are exposed to but don’t want to talk about – lust and desire. Specifically, we’re going to discuss how pornography addiction can be dangerous for our spiritual, emotional, and mental wellbeing.

Body:

1. The power of lust
– The Bible teaches us that lust is a sin that can lead us away from God.
– Lust is a powerful force that can make us prioritize our sexual desires over everything else.

2. The danger of pornography addiction
– Pornography is a cheap and easily accessible form of entertainment that can lead to addiction.
– The unrealistic and objectifying images can distort our view of healthy relationships and sex.
– Addiction to pornography can lead to a feeling of dissatisfaction and unrealistic expectations in sexual relationships.
– It can also lead to feelings of shame, guilt, and low self-esteem.

3. Overcoming pornography addiction
– If you’re struggling with pornography addiction, it’s important to know that you’re not alone.
– Seek help from a trusted adult or counselor who can guide you through the process of recovery.
– You can also find support through online resources such as websites, forums, and support groups.
– In addition, replace the addiction to pornography with positive habits like spending time in prayer, reading the Bible, spending time with friends and family, and finding other hobbies.

Conclusion:

In conclusion, lust and desire are natural feelings, but they can lead to dangerous addiction if we let them control our lives. Pornography addiction is a real issue that affects many people, but with the right support, we can overcome the addiction, reclaim our spiritual, emotional, and mental health, and live a fulfilling life as a follower of Jesus. Remember, God loves you, and he wants the best for your life.

– A handful of paper clips
– A roll of duct tape
– A hammer

Presentation:
1. Start by displaying the clear glass jar and the handful of paper clips in front of the audience.
2. Explain that the jar represents the mind, and the paper clips represent thoughts and ideas.
3. Hold up the piece of paper with the words “LUST” and “DESIRE” and ask the audience if they know what these words mean. Allow for brief discussion.
4. Tell the audience that pornography addiction is a dangerous trap that can lead to damaging thoughts and ideas.
5. Start dropping the paper clips, one by one, into the jar, while talking about how each clip represents a fleeting thought of lust or desire. Encourage the audience to think about their own thoughts and see if they can relate.
6. Soon, the jar will be filled with paper clips, representing the overwhelming amount of lustful or desirous thoughts that can clutter a person’s mind.
7. Wrap the duct tape tightly around the jar, securing the paper clips inside, as a symbol of how difficult it can be to break free from the chains of addiction.
