An important article by Elder Dallin H. Oaks, “Recovering from the Trap of Pornography,” appears in the October issue of the Ensign, Liahona, and New Era magazines.

Elder Oaks talks about the growing problem of pornography and helps us understand how to respond appropriately to it. He explains the levels of involvement and explains how to avoid it or escape from it. I encourage everyone to read this article.

Also included in the magazine is a guide for children and a guide for helping those who struggle with pornography.
