and into the sex industry and the porn industry and

tried to bring light

into a dark place.

I guess in a sense, I got to be a pastor

to the porn industry, and it was incredible.

It was an incredible experience.

That's where I learned about grace. It just meant going, being

present with people

at porn shows and handing out a Bible

and telling them that Jesus loves them and that they may not think that's true, but it's true.

But it wasn't until I got on the

the floor with thousands and thousands of porn stars and porn producers and

porn buyers and consumers and

fans and all that, that actually I

realized what grace was all about. I learned that people

in the darkest places like a porn show are

just like me and just like the people that I attended church with,

and we're all searching for the same thing. We just find ourselves in

different places.

We don't probably like to have this picture of Jesus, but I

think Jesus would be all over

all the places that we think we shouldn't be going to, like a porn show

or

a bar or

you name it - whatever place that seems off-limits, I think those are the places

that Jesus would be rushing into

if he was walking the earth today, and

as just a small little ambassador -

a little worker bee for Jesus - I just

loved the fact that I got to do that for

several years and hear stories of

porn producers who were just trying to be good dads and

porn stars who were just wanting to be loved.

The questions that we are all asking are the same,

and it all comes back to the truth

of Jesus' love and His grace and His forgiveness,

and I don't care whether you're a porn star or a prostitute

or pastor, preacher, a soccer mom,

a business guy - we all need the same thing and that's

Jesus.
