Just saw an article on NPR news that talks about GYE in conjunctions with XXXChurch, wow! Well done!

With this kind of coverage you should get tons of new visitors, and hopefully help a lot of people.

Wow! Very cool.  I would love to see the video the article refers to about the NFL players discussing their porn addiction.  Might even be better than many Superbowls I've seen.

THanks for the tip. Took me a little while to find it, but here's the link - www.npr.org/2011/02/03/133463774/religious-groups-tackle-an-x-rated-secret Very refreshing to hear NFL players talking about this. It's like confronting the issue from another angle, from a part of my life that I would never expect this to come from (and I don't even follow football!)

Indeed.  Just a reminder that, they may be 6'4" with bulging muscles, but "Eizehu Gibor, haKoveish es Yitzro."

Kedusha! How could you highlight this information! Guard wants his identity kept secret, and here you go putting it out for the world to see! Please delete that post immediately!

I'm sure, although the BM has it's own challenges as you correctly imply.

I've noticed this too. Got me pretty sad at first, but then who cares. I can choose to live may life the way that makes sense to me, I don't need to change the world. I just have to be careful in it.
