"We have a pornography crisis in the church. This book, however, does not take a deep dive on the statistics or how our brains are being rewired by the internet. This is not a book about the pornography business. This is a book about root causes, root teachings, and then root solutions. Mentioning the Unmentionables seeks to answer the question """"How did we get here?"""" It calls attention to the dire problem of pornography, but then offers a faithful response in the context of the church: to mention the unmentionables."

Reviews for Mentioning the Unmentionables

"""Yes, this is a book about the threat of sexual sin--its tragic, ready acceptance among Christians, and the fight that should be waged against it. But this book is about much more. In truth, this book is a call for the church to be the church and to live out faithfully and unapologetically the reality that God desires for his creatures. This book needs to be read, and its call heeded."" --Joel Biermann, professor of systematic theology, Concordia Seminary ""Pornography uniquely intensifies our world's woes. The cure, as Chris Heaton rightly points out, is the merciful touch of our Lord Jesus Christ. Christ's embrace forgives, soothes, heals, teaches, and guides us into holiness. In Christ--and so, in this book, which extolls a reverent and practical way forward for those so troubled--lies hope."" --Scott A. Bruzek, associate pastor, St. John Lutheran Church"
