CENTRAL TEACHING MEETINGS 7pm Dinner | 8-9pm Talk Pornography: from a life of struggle to a life of freedom Wednesday 5th July • Rich Alldritt Ever tried to help someone enslaved by pornography? Ever struggled with this issue personally? Pornography is an issue affecting an increasing number of both Christian men and women, but at the same time continues to be a taboo topic among many believers.
