If your goal is to help prepare young people for healthy, fulfilling futures, you can’t just talk about passion and purity. You’ve got to talk about porn. The pornography industry is making billions of dollars at the expense of young people—who don’t understand that porn is addictive, destructive and contributes to earlier sexual activity.

Two hours in the classroom could save them years of heartache in their futures. ILLUSIONS is an eye-opening 2-hour PowerPoint presentation for grades 8-12 that dramatically exposes the harmful effects of pornography. Through appropriate, guided interactions, students learn how porn warps the brain’s perceptions of sex, love and intimacy. Best of all, armed with this knowledge, they’ll be better prepared to resist its allure, preserve their purity and pursue healthy relationships.

Here’s an overview of what’s covered in this unique presentation:

• Introduction: Everyone wants healthy, positive relationships.
• The make up of a healthy individual
• Baggage: How porn affects relationships
• Defining pornography
• Why people look at pornography
• Trends, statistics
• The road to addiction
