WALK IN PURITYWhat it is
When a pastor needs a number for a sermon or a parent needs one for a school board, this is where it usually comes from. Covenant Eyes maintains a statistics page and a free downloadable PDF report covering addiction rates among men and women, Christian and pastoral engagement, industry size and revenue, teen exposure, effects on marriage, and current trends including user-generated content, AI-generated material and VR. Most figures are from 2024, with some older studies referenced, and the page was last modified in July 2026. Crucially it carries 18 numbered references — New York Times, PLoS One, The Journal of Sex Research, market research firms — so claims can be traced rather than repeated on trust. It is also honest about its limits, noting there is no way to calculate the exact volume of pornography online and that industry revenue estimates range from $58 billion to $287 billion. Use the sourced figures; treat the wide ranges as ranges.
