Now happily married to Garrett, her husband and the mother of three daughters, Shelley takes a message of transformation against-all-odds to prisons, TV, radio, film, conferences and rescue missions. She has been a guest on talk shows such as Dr. Phil, Michael Reagan and most recently, FOXNews.

Her message is one of exposing the $57 billion porn industry for what it is - full of lies and deceit, addiction and broken lives. Shelley maintains that women who turn to the industry to make money "probably didn't grow up in healthy childhoods."

She says, "Some were raped by relatives and molested by neighbors," she said. "Ask a porn star what her background was like and she'll avoid that subject like the plague. Porn stars don't want fans to know they actually have broken hearts. That would KILL the fantasy, now wouldn't it?"

Though it is a subject that Christians and family-values-minded people would sometimes rather avoid, Shelley states, "Porn is virtually everywhere on earth. It affects everyone. No matter where you go, it'll be in your path. It will reach you through its TV networks, pay-per-view movies on cable and satellite, Internet Web sites, in-room hotel movies, phone sex, peep shows, and magazines."

But Shelley Lubben is on a mission to rescue others from this addictive destruction. She travels throughout the country speaking on the "effects of prostitution and pornography, the truth behind the fantasy of porn, how to overcome pornography addiction, tricks pornographers play, the risks and effects of prostitution, recovery for sex workers, and many other topics including abortion, theology, computer programming and scams in the sex industry."
