AKRON, Ohio -- This Sunday, churches across the globe will talk about something that's a bit taboo.

Oct. 9 is National Porn Sunday, a campaign geared to address how pornography affects individuals and families.

A 29-year-old youth minister from California who created a ministry called XXX Church was in Akron Tuesday to help kick off the program.

"I think churches turn a blind eye because it's such a tough issue to deal with," said Craig Gross. "A recent study says that 37 percent of pastors deal with this, so if you're a pastor you won't talk about issues that hit home, so you kind of skip over those."

Nine churches in Ohio have signed on take part in National Porn Sunday as well as 75 churches nationwide.
