denver- Pornography was the topic of the sermon Sunday at a church in Lafayette. The founder of a Web site was at Flatirons Community Church to preach about addictions to porn.

Rev. Craig Gross is the founder of XXXchurch.com. Gross was at the pulpit talking about the often devastating impact pornography can have on families and careers.

“There is help out there,” Gross said. “Things we’re talking about today at this church and that are offered can get you on the right road.”

Church leaders admitted they’ve received some backlash for inviting Gross to preach on a controversial topic. Some did welcome the open discussion.

“We’ve got to talk about it and I’d rather talk about it now before they have to stumble upon something,” Laura Mullis, the mother four said.

Gross told the congregation that it’s important to confront porn addictions instead of ignoring them.

He launched his Web site at a porn conference in Las Vegas. Gross said it was the best way to reach his target audience.
