Luke Gilkerson has a BA in Philosophy and Religious Studies and an MA in Religion. He is the author of Your Brain on Porn and The Talk: 7 Lessons to Introduce Your Child to Biblical Sexuality. Luke and his wife Trisha blog at IntoxicatedOnLife.com

Below is a short clip about Michael Leahy from SexTV, the flagship program of the SexTV channel (which I wholeheartedly do not recommend). While this show continually pushes the boundaries, visually and topically, I thought this video was both tasteful and informative. This is a great summary of Michael’s story.

Porn Nation is not only Michael’s campus tour, but the name of his first book. Learn more at Michael’s website, bravehearts.org.
