Mae, the "Every Man's Battle," series has been quite successful, and addresses the issues of sexual sin, including pornography. The series expanded to include "Every Young Man's Battle," and that may be a place to start for your son. I pray this helps.

We run a program called Celebrate Recovery (originated at Saddleback Church) which is a 12 step recovery program with a small group specifically for men with sexual addictions. The combination of Christian teaching, small group discussion, peer support and accountability makes a huge difference in the lives of the men and their families. We also have a support group for the women who are affected by their husbands behaviour. I would recommend looking for a similar program in your area.

Another great book that I've recommended people on this issue is "Pure Desire" by Ted Roberts.

I know of several books that are good. One for instance is "Everyman's Battle", it deals with the issue head on and gives some good help to men. Also, there is online help through a great devotional series aimed at helping men called in-purity.org, these are written from an anonymous pastor who struggled but found victory over this sin. They are great! I recommend it to people even to use as a safe gaurd.
