Former-pornographic film star Teresa Carey spent most of her adult
life appearing in X-rated films but after having an encounter with Jesus
himself the Glamour girl turned pornography star gave it all up and is now a
Christian author and speaker.
The British-born “model” made a fortune
posing for Playboy magazine but now Carey spends her days sharing her testimony
with universities and studying the bible. Wherever she speaks she hangs signs
that read “Porn Again Christian” or “50 Shades of Grace.”
Carey tells Vice.com that she is happy she
turned her back on the s*x industry.
“No little girl wants to be a porn star.
No little girl grows up saying, ‘I want to be used in that way.’ Girls are
enticed by the modeling side of it,” she said.
In an older interview with SWNS Carey
expounded on her life style from then until now. “At the time it felt like I
was living the dream. It was the kind of lifestyle that girls today dream
about.” She said, Adding, “Men loved me and I had legions of fans but every time
I was at work I just kept thinking, ‘I’m not happy with myself for doing this’.
I was battling in my mind for so long.”
Carey entered the porn industry when she
was 17 after she flew to America because of a beauty pageant she won. Several
years later In December of 2009 after years of feeling the tug from God an
experience with Jesus himself help her give up the life of pornography for
good.
“I was face to face with Jesus. He had
fire in his eyes that burnt straight through my soul. But it was a fire of
love, of burning love, not of condemnation,” she told Vice.
In another interview she said, “I was meditating and
suddenly a voice called out ‘If you bring your life in line with what I have in
store for you I will lead you down the garden path.’” she told SWNA, going on
to say, “I knew there and then that my life had to take a different direction,
I never stripped off again after that day.”
Adding, “After that I felt instant joy. I
contacted everyone that I worked with to say that I wasn’t working anymore and
explained why. They all wished me luck and they probably thought I was a mad
woman. Then I deleted the numbers and decided I didn’t ever want to go back.”
Today she is a successful Christian author
and has released two books, ‘God’s Plan for My Life – What is it?’ and a book
of hymns called ‘Rhapsody! In The Name Of Jesus!’
The successful author tells Vice the
message God wants her to tell people is, “you are not condemned, no matter how
bad you think you have lived your life, he is able to take you out of it and
lead you into better things.”
After years of making lesbian films
Carey’s view on homos*xuality drastically changed. “For years, I thought there
was nothing wrong with homos*xuality. God gives us free will, so he loves a gay
person as much as he loves a straight person. But he puts guidelines in for our
own protection. He puts them there because, if the whole world became gay, it
would be detrimental to life,” she told Vice.
She continued, “God doesn’t want his
children to feel condemned or pressured. Gay people are going to have a hard
time, and God doesn’t want that. I’m not for homos*xuality; I’m certainly not
for it.”
