Porn and The Gospel

Should You Tell Your Wife About Your Addiction?

This is a tough question for most men. In this episode, I'll help you think through this important issue.
Hebrews 11:23-29
23 By faith Moses, when he was born, was hidden for three months by his parents, because they saw that the child was beautiful, and they were not afraid of the king's edict.
24 By faith Moses, when he was grown up, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter,
25 choosing rather to be mistreated with the people of God than to enjoy the fleeting pleasures of sin.
26 He considered the reproach of Christ greater wealth than the treasures of Egypt, for he was looking to the reward.
27 By faith he left Egypt, not being afraid of the anger of the king, for he endured as seeing him who is invisible.
28 By faith he kept the Passover and sprinkled the blood, so that the Destroyer of the firstborn might not touch them.
29 By faith the people crossed the Red Sea as on dry land, but the Egyptians, when they attempted to do the same, were drowned.

The Power to Overcome

The power to overcome pornography in your life comes down to your ability to do three things:1. Look back

The Perfect Sacrifice For Your Addiction

What is it about us that makes us want to pay or redeem ourselves from our problem with ?What is it about a man that temps him to just try harder next time? Or vow to do better?
We love to be our own saviors. But the decades spent in pornography prove that we are the absolute worst at saving ourselves.
There must be a better way.
In this episode of and the Gospel, we'll look at the only perfect sacrifice for our as well as all the other sins we commit on a daily basis.

WARNING: The True Cost of

How To Know If You Will Find Freedom From

Hebrews 6:7-87 For land that has drunk the rain that often falls on it, and produces a crop useful to those for whose sake it is cultivated, receives a blessing from God.
8 But if it bears thorns and thistles, it is worthless and near to being cursed, and its end is to be burned.

9 Steps Toward a Changed Life

A lot of people want to change without changing anything.
Example - “I want to quit looking at for good.” OR “I want to get in shape.” - so many examples to choose from.
And yet nothing really changes in their life. They’re still looking at the same social accounts, still have the same morning routine, evening routine, eating habits, workout habits.
Instead, they download some internet blocking software that might make the change for them. Or take a pill. Or blame the government or their spouse or anyone else but themselves.
Over the past three years, I have learned a lot about change mostly through trial and error and failing and a little success.
In my opinion, the best way to change is to identify small daily opportunities (and there are many to choose from) that will produce large changes over time.
In this podcast, I'll walk you through nine important changes I made in my life that were part of my freedom from pornography.
There’s nothing complicated about any of these. As a matter of fact, someone might say these are ‘common sense.’ But common sense isn’t common practice from what I’ve observed.
And even though they’re simple. They are easier not to do than to do.
That is a choice you have to make.

Men (who are also followers of Christ) who have struggled with for years and years and possibly decades and decades have sought to be free in many ways.
blockers
Accountability
Will power
Meetings

And still, they stay stuck...WHY?

There are many answers to these questions...many complex answers.
But I can point to at least three indicators...three signs...that a follower of Christ will continue struggling with .
In this podcast, we'll examine each of these in order to see if you yourself can identify with this list.

3 Types of Men - Which One Are You?

There are three types of men in this world and you need to know which one you are.
This is especially vital when it comes to how each of these men responds to the Word of God.
Why is this relevant? Because this world is not our home and we have a promised rest for any who persevere to the end.
Hebrews 4:11-13
11 Let us therefore strive to enter that rest, so that no one may fall by the same sort of disobedience. 12 For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart. 13 And no creature is hidden from his sight, but all are naked and exposed to the eyes of him to whom we must give account.
Listen in to determine the type of man you are...and if you find that it's not the man you want to be, there's good news...God is patient with us and promises to transform us.
