Would You Marry a Former Porn Star?
I’m guessing you’ve never heard of her. Do me a favor — don’t google her name. I’m going to tell you what you really need to know about this woman and her amazing story of redemption.
How did I hear about Crissy?
He, his wife Kimme and the worship crew at Elevation Church understand what it means to reach out to “the least of these” and to share stories that need to be shared. World changers I tell you, one soul at a time.
I have to give a shout out about this guy, because not only did he hear Crissy’s story, he wrote about it. And Paul Morrell and Elevation Church went on to make a short film about it.
(How ironic is that… the same technology that once perpetuated skewed images of sexuality with Crissy is now being used triumphantly to accurately portray the beauty of her as a redeemed child of God).
I have no financial incentive to promote this. I simply believe enough in David’s heart and his desire that the church not ignore what it will take to shine light into the darkest of places.
I imagine by this point I at least have your interest piqued, right? Well, go and download the film and watch it.
I watched it and was tenderly reminded that God looks not for hearts and lives that are all bright and shiny and clean — He longs instead for each of us to recognize our brokenness and sin and run full force with all of it into His embrace.
If you believe in even a small way that this message of redemption and hope is needed, please tweet and facebook this post.
Spread the word. Do what you can to partner with people who are trying to shine light into dark places. Those places are desperate for hope, and the extent to which those of us who already know God’s love are willing to go makes a difference.
It loosens the grasp the enemy has on God’s precious gift of authentic sexual intimacy and sexuality.

Going back probably 10 years myself and a couple others were bouncers for her when she was on a live webcam show. This is the first I have heard about it. Praise God.
Yes, I would absolutely have considered marrying crissy. Clearly I never had the chance to meet her, much less date her. However, I would have jumped at the chance to go out with her. If the chemistry was right, why not marriage. The more time passes, the less she is known as former pornstar. The more she is known as Christian, as advocate to help others.
Former adult film people are likely like everyone else. Some you d like personally and others would get on your nerves. Some can work through past hardships, others will be plagued with drama for life. You can’t lump everyone into one category.
Janine, another beautiful woman but not one to marry. Crissy, beautiful inside and out. A jewel.
The question to is, would a former pornstar want to marry you. Would anyone for that matter want to marry you. If not, figure out what changes you need to make. Good luck.

Yes, I would, certainly, marry such a lady, who has turned to the Lord. The question I most often have is “Why would she or any other saintly woman would want to marry me?”
