Episode 256: It’s Time to Talk about P*rn | Greta Eskridge

Hole In My Heart Podcast

Friday, February 13, 2026 - 38 minutes

We always love conversations with people who truly understand the complexities of human sexuality, and today’s guest is no exception. Author and podcaster Greta Eskridge joins us to help parents and caregivers navigate one of the most challenging discipleship conversations of our time: pornography.

Together, we explore how to thoughtfully and faithfully engage the topic of porn while leading the younger disciples in our lives with wisdom, clarity, and compassion.

In this episode, we discuss:

  • What to do when we feel unequipped to talk with our kids about pornography

  • Why these conversations need to start earlier than most of us expect

  • The specific words that are helpful before and after a child encounters porn

  • Whether punishment is ever the right response when a child watches porn repeatedly

  • How heart needs—not just curiosity—can drive teens toward pornography

  • How to engage a culture that celebrates porn while forming resilient, Christ-shaped kids

This conversation is practical, honest, and deeply hopeful for anyone raising or discipling kids in a sexually broken world.

Encouraging Words From Your Bible

Free those who are wrongly imprisoned; lighten the burden of those who work for you. Let the oppressed go free, and remove the chains that bind people. Share your food with the hungry, and give shelter to the homeless. Give clothes to those who need them, and do not hide from relatives who need your help.
