I believe in the hope of a powerful and redeemed life for every Christian man stuck in sexual bondage. For 20 years I suffered in the isolation and destruction of sex addiction, until God did the impossible through recovery and I WALKED through the Red Sea ON DRY GROUND. Now I'm living a redeemed life! In my podcast, I share authentically, offering the unique story of my journey from addiction to freedom and beyond. Tune in now to be inspired, encouraged and maybe even entertained! Season 1: My Story Season 2: Friends http://redseamentoring.com/

    After entering the desert, the Israelites suffered hardships, and they grumbled. Moses listened to them and cried out to God! Which of these behaviors can I relate to? Both. Listen as I revisit my uncomfortable time in the desert, sharing from my journal from 2018, where I was both unspiritual like the Israelites and spiritual like Moses.

    God protected the Israelites as the Egyptian army was approaching, yet He didn't provide a way forward immediately. There was a time of what I can only imagine must have been fear and lost faith and hopelessness. But when the timing was right, God opened the Red Sea and the willingness to cross was there. Listen as I reflect on my recovery from sexual addiction - my marriage was protected in my time of fear and hopelessness, and my willingness to walk on dry ground was established.

    Instead of leading the Israelites on the shorter, more direct route, God leads them to being trapped at the Red Sea. He did this intentionally - it was a setup! AND it was merciful and loving to do so. Listen to me explore the Setup, from an Israelite perspective and in my own authentic story.

    I was recently reminded of how delightful dry ground is, both physically and spiritually. For the Israelites, I think dry ground to walk on was JUST AS IMPORTANT as the waters being parted. Seriously, dry ground was that important?! Listen as I revisit the magnificent metaphor of dry ground and share two recent, relevant stories to explain my additional appreciation for this particular provision from God.
