I came to the AVN show expecting to hear and see all kinds of things I never have before. I knew people would be taking pictures of beautiful naked women. I knew that there would be images coming at me from all around that would be hard to ignore. I had all kinds of family and friends praying for me as I was walking into this situation. Without them, the XXXChurch Team, and our incredible volunteers, I never would have been able to handle it. There are some great stories, but also some that aren't so great and I'm a believer in sharing the good along with the bad.
There was something that happened that really shocked me and made me incredibly angry. I was dressed up as Rex the Rabbit and walked around the floor getting all kinds of pictures with people having a great time and starting some good conversations. As I was walking back towards the booth, I overheard a DJ talking to the crowd as a lady was dancing on a pole. I heard him say to someone (I have no idea who because I couldn't see anyting wearing the Rex outfit) "Hey, you really look like you want to %*#@ my wife." And then he went on the say something to infer that for $1000.00 he might be able to make it happen for the guy. Rex almost turned around and decked the guy. All I can say is that I am glad Jesus loves him because I absolutely could not. I wanted to share this to just let people know how broken and hurt these people are and how it is only by God's incredible grace that we are able to share his love, hope, and peace with people.
