Gene McConnell

Gene McConnell is one of America’s foremost experts on shame and its impact on one’s personal perception that effects all other relationships. His message helps identify and interpret adverse consequences of societal trends that are engulfing our contemporary culture. Gene educates individuals and organizations all over the world about the foundational elements of building and maintaining healthy relationships in marriage, the workplace, and the community.

Gene’s expertise first came on to the national scene with his signature messages about the sexualization of our culture, and the impact it has upon individual lives, relationships and communities. His proprietary program, The Power of Porn, broke new ground by demonstrating the link between the root causes of shame, broken relationships and the consumption of sexual images.

Gene has developed training for therapists, pastors, law enforcement officers and medical professionals for over 31years, focusing on education about pornography’s role in the exploitation of women and children in our society.
