Though you may initially be drawn to Christ out of your great need to be free from pornography, your struggle against this sin is just the beginning of God’s greater purpose in saving you. You are saved, not just to be free from pornography, but to know and experience the joy of walking with Jesus, of following Him, and of becoming more and more like Him.

Heath Lambert
Heath Lambert (* 1979) ist ein US-amerikanischer baptistischer Theologe, Autor und leitender Pastor der First Baptist Church in Jacksonville, Florida. Er ist ein führender Vertreter der biblischen Seelsorgebewegung („Biblical Counseling“), die auf der alleinigen Genügsamkeit der Heiligen Schrift für Lebensfragen beharrt und säkulare Psychologie ablehnt. Für Bibelleser bieten seine Schriften theologische Impulse zu Seelsorge und christlicher Lebensführung, während seine strikte theologische Abgrenzung und gemeindliche Vorgaben zu ethischen Fragen wiederholt Kontroversen auslösten.
