What to Do When Your Husband is Looking at Porn

Today Heather interviews Rosie Makinney of Fight for Love Ministries--a ministry dedicated to helping women affected by porn in their marriages. Rosie shares the resurrection story of her marriage and how she and her husband came to a new place of hope and healing after porn. We go to some hard places today in our conversation about the realities of porn and how it hurts our marriages. Here are some of the topics we tackle:

• Why we don't talk about it when porn shows up in our marriages and what that does to the issue.
• How porn use affects our brains, even if we're not the one looking.
• How porn affects the user's brain, but how you can rewire it!
• Why porn is so addictive and how it hijacks the brain, making it almost impossible to stop without help or intervention.
• What porn does to satisfaction in marriage.
• How to cope with the pain if you've just found out your husband is looking at porn.
• What to do if you're dating a guy who's using porn.
• How to be on the same team in fighting porn in your marriage--even while you're still grieving and hurting.

The added accountability can be a huge asset for any man or woman in porn addiction recovery too.
