    Should We Just Watch Porn Together?

    This conversation recently went down in the “community” section of an app I use. “I really wish my husband would stop watching porn. He keeps telling me he’s going to stop but our accounts are linked so I can see that he’s looking at porn at work.” “Girl, give it…

About Me

Hi! I'm Jessica. I'm an author, speaker, military wife, and mother, passionate about God's grace and His power to redeem stories. Since 2009, I've been sharing how God worked in my life to set me free from an addiction to pornography (yes, Christian women do watch porn). My first book, Beggar's Daughter, was self-published and released in 2016. My second book, Quenched: Discovering God's Abundant Grace for Women Struggling with Pornography and Sexual Shame was released by Baker Books in 2023. I write about topics like recovering from porn addiction and what grace and freedom look like in parenting and marriage. I firmly believe grace has a story, and you're in it.
