XXXchurch.com

XXXchurch.com is a website developed by Live Free Ministries dedicated to helping men with pornography and sex addiction by promoting a Christian ideology of healthy sexuality and mental well-being. The website was launched in 2002 and relaunched/rebranded in 2021 when it became part of Live Free Ministries, a New Jersey based 501c3 nonprofit. The website provides a collection of resources that include articles, videos, podcasts, online courses, and supportive communities. These resources are designed to offer guidance, assistance, and connection to individuals who want to overcome addiction. The website was launched in January 2002 when Fireproof Ministry founders, set up a booth inside the AVN Adult Entertainment Expo in Las Vegas to promote the website as an alternative to porn and continued to attend porn conventions worldwide for over 15 years. The group has given out thousands of Bibles with "Jesus Loves Porn Stars" on the cover at these conventions, a facet of their ministry which has been featured in American national media. The organization has received support from prominent Christian pastors such as Bill Hybels, Craig Groeschel and Rick Warren. Pornographic film director James DiGiorgio took photographs for XXXchurch and faced business issues as a result of becoming affiliated with the organization. DiGiorgio was not a Christian, however said that he was helping XXXchurch because the sex industry is "always trying to preach freedom of speech; [so] anyone in this industry who has a problem with [XXXchurch's] message is a fucking hypocrite. You can't have it both ways." In 2004, Mike Foster departed from Firerpoof Ministries and XXXchurch. In 2005, the independent film Missionary Positions was released, produced and directed by Bill Day, which documented the origins of XXXchurch. Craig Gross left the ministry in 2021 to pursue other interests promoting the benefits of marijuana consumption and other drugs. In March 2021, XXXchurch was acquired and relaunched by Live Free Ministries.
