His hope-filled approach to a subject many have trouble talking about has inspired a global audience of men to take action and transform their lives. He is the author of the 2022 book, Porn Free: Becoming the Type of Man That Does Not Look at Porn. From his home in suburban Chicago, Matt podcasts and runs a professional coaching practice. He is happily married to his wife, Janice, whom he has been friends with since college. Together, they have two sons in college.

Words like sex addict or porn addiction are hastily applied or adopted. But often we miss gaining a greater understanding of ourselves and the truth of our situation. Bill Herring, LCSW, CSAT joins Porn Free Radio to share his framework for assessing problematic sexuality. It can easily be used to assess problematic porn use. Bill's common sense framework looks at 5 categories and uses 5 questions to assess problematic sexual behaviors. Bill's Questions: Are you keeping your promises? (Commitments) Are you OKAY with what you are doing? (Values) Are you in control of yourself? (Control) Is everything okay? (Consequence) Are you protecting everyone? (Responsibility)     ---- 10 Traits of the Mature Celibate   The former Catholic priest and psychotherapist A. W. Richard Sipe has spent the bulk of his career (approximately four decades) studying the practice of celibacy in Roman Catholic contexts, and he argues that genuine celibacy is indeed viable and healthy for those who attain it. But he believes it must be pursued. A large number of vowed clergy do live lives of disciplined sexual abstinence, according to Sipe's major work Celibacy in Crisis, but what he refers to (unhelpfully) as the “achievement” of celibacy—in which the major developmental crises have been weathered and the celibate state has been embraced and is, for all purposes, irreversible—is more rare, according to Sipe. He thinks this mature state of “attained” celibacy is virtually always characterized by at least ten traits:  first, by work (the productive use of time and energy); second, by prayer (an active interior life lived in the presence of God);  third, by community (“people to whom [the celibate is] committed and people on whom they can rely”); fourth, by service (some form of self-giving that takes one beyond one's own sphere);  fifth, by an awareness of one's physical needs and a willingness to fulfill one's lawful hungers with gentleness and self-care;  sixth, by balance in the rhythms of one's lifestyle;  seventh, by security in one's relational and communal commitments (“all celibate achievers had someone to whom they felt that they had confided the essence of themselves”);  eighth, by order in one's daily and seasonal life;  ninth, by learning and ongoing curiosity about others and the world one inhabits; and  tenth and finally, by an appreciation of beauty.  The one who undertakes this kind of celibate life must become intimately familiar with his or her characteristic patterns of desire, temptation, longing, and weakness. 10 points from book: A. W. Richard Sipe, Celibacy in Crisis: A Secret World Revisited (New York: Brunner-Routledge, 2003), 301. Quoted in book by: Hill, Wesley.

A man sits in church every Sunday carrying a secret. He sings the songs, shakes the pastor's hand, and believes if anyone knew, he'd be done. So he stays quiet. And the church stays quiet too.Sam Black, Director of Recovery Education at Covenant Eyes, has spent almost 20 years breaking that silence. For his book The Healing Church, he interviewed more than 70 pastors, counselors, and men who found freedom from pornography to learn what churches getting it right are actually doing.Sam and Michael Chestnut get honest about porn addiction, shame, and why so many Christian men stay stuck even when they want out. Sam shares his first exposure at 10 years old and why almost every man remembers his. They break down the addiction cycle, why willpower never lasts, how to start a recovery group at church, how porn affects your wife, the rise of AI pornography, and how Victory by Covenant Eyes protects every device.Michael also shares the day a pastor told him God was done using him, and the stranger who walked with him instead.Jesus isn't done with you.CHAPTERS00:00 You still remember your first exposure01:11 Why the church stays silent about porn06:10 Why Christian men get stuck in porn addiction19:09 How to break the porn addiction cycle21:25 Starting a porn recovery group at church33:07 What Barna research says about Christians and porn36:26 The pastor who said God was done with me41:18 How Victory by Covenant Eyes works53:11 How porn affects your wife55:37 AI pornography and what to do about it1:00:41 2026 Samson Summit, October 23 to 25RESOURCES FROM THIS EPISODEVictory by Covenant Eyes: https://www.covenanteyes.com/victory/Free Covenant Eyes resources: https://www.covenanteyes.com/resources/Strive21: https://strive21.comSamson Society: https://www.samsonsociety.com2026 Samson Summit: https://samsonswag.squarespace.com/events/p/2026-samson-summitWant a real plan for the fight?

Emily Wilson Hussem joins Theo McManigal on The Covenant Eyes Podcast for a powerful conversation about Christian dating, marriage, relationships, faith, technology, and finding freedom from the lies shaping modern life.Why does commitment feel so difficult today? Are our phones changing the way we experience marriage, family, and relationships? And how can Christians build lives rooted in genuine connection rather than constant distraction?Emily shares the story behind Sacred Spark, her work helping Catholic singles connect, and her book Sincerely, Stoneheart, a modern exploration inspired by C.S. Lewis's The Screwtape Letters. She and Theo discuss fear of commitment, Christian dating, spiritual warfare, the importance of fatherhood, healing unhealthy family patterns, and the search for our God-given identity.Emily also challenges parents to consider a difficult question: How will your children remember you? She explains how constant phone use can affect our presence with our spouses and children—and shares practical changes she's made in her own family.Later, Theo and Emily discuss an often-overlooked issue: women struggling with unwanted explicit content. Emily shares why women need compassion, understanding, and resources designed specifically for their journey, including Covenant Eyes' Arise program.Emily's website:  https://emilywilsonministries.com/Sacred Spark:  https://www.sacredspark.app/Sincerely, Stoneheart book:  https://emilywilsonministries.com/sincerelystoneheartIn this episode:Christian dating and modern dating cultureFear of commitment and endless optionsHow technology affects marriage and familyPhone distraction and being present with your childrenHealing generational family patternsIdentity, belovedness, and fatherhoodSincerely, Stoneheart and spiritual warfareWomen and unwanted explicit contentFinding hope and freedom through Jesus ChristLearn more about Covenant Eyes and discover resources designed to help individuals and families build healthier digital habits and experience lasting freedom.  https://cvnteyes.co/4gb6xme#ChristianDating #ChristianMarriage #Relationships #EmilyWilsonHussem #CovenantEyesTIMESTAMPED CHAPTERS00:00 Meet Emily Wilson Hussem00:46 Emily's Faith & Ministry Journey03:51 The Dignity and Vocation of Women05:39 Emily's Marriage & Family Story06:37 Lessons From an Intercultural Marriage11:02 What's Wrong With Modern Dating?12:30 The Matchmaking Post That Changed Everything13:26 How Sacred Spark Began15:17 Why People Are Afraid of Commitment18:45 How the Internet Changed Our Expectations20:31 “You'll Never Find a Man Who Doesn't Watch It”24:20 Sincerely, Stoneheart & Spiritual Warfare26:33 The Lies Women Are Taught31:17 Why Women Search for Their Worth33:39 The Importance of Fathers35:26 Breaking Generational Family Patterns38:24 Is Your Phone Hurting Your Family?40:46 Is Your Phone Hurting Your Marriage?44:51 How Emily Handles Phones Around Her Kids47:13 Women Struggle With Explicit Content Too47:45 Hope & Help for Women Through Arise50:20 How the Church Can Better Support Women52:05 Helping the Wounded Is Helping Christ53:06 Emily's Final Message of Hope53:33 Sacred Spark & Sincerely, StoneheartSend us your feedback!Try Covenant Eyes for FREE today!Use Promo Code: FreePodcast © 2026 Covenant Eyes, All Rights Reserved

She shares how connecting with a recovery community, growing in her Christian faith, and understanding her identity in Christ changed the trajectory of her life.In this episode, Caroline explains why recovery is about much more than simply stopping an addictive behavior. True recovery can involve physical and mental health, spiritual formation, healthy relationships, community, accountability, and learning how to live differently.You'll also discover practical ways to support a loved one in recovery—including healthy boundaries, listening without judgment, encouragement, community support, and recognizing the difference between helping and enabling. Caroline shares why even small acts of love can have a profound impact on someone struggling with addiction.Karen, Rob, and Caroline also discuss the role of the Christian church in addiction recovery and how churches can become places where individuals and families can talk openly about addiction, trauma, recovery, and healing without being overwhelmed by shame or stigma.Caroline's new book, When You Love Someone in Recovery, is a practical and hopeful guide designed to help families better understand recovery and learn how to support the people they love.Website: https://carolinebeidler.comCaroline's book: https://a.co/d/0hJJWcZOIn this episode:•  What addiction recovery really looks like•  How to help someone struggling with addiction•  Supporting a family member in recovery•  Healthy boundaries vs. enabling•  Overcoming shame and stigma•  Faith and Christian addiction recovery•  Why community matters in recovery•  How churches can support people affected by addiction•  Caroline Beidler's personal recovery story•  Practical encouragement for families and loved onesLearn how Covenant Eyes can help with YOUR recovery:https://cvnteyes.co/4gb6xme

Can God transform addiction, grief, and painful experiences into something meaningful?In this episode of the Covenant Eyes Podcast, Theo McManigal sits down with musician and producer Paul Pulsipher to hear his powerful story of faith, recovery, loss, and transformation.Paul shares how a hidden struggle began when he was young, why secrecy made it harder to ask for help, and how music eventually became a way to express emotions he couldn't put into ordinary words. He also discusses why parents need to create an environment where their children can bring difficult experiences into the open without fear.The conversation also takes a deeply personal turn as Paul discusses the loss of his first wife, Lorraine, the return of old struggles during difficult seasons, and how his faith helped reshape his understanding of recovery, relationships, and purpose.Paul's message is ultimately one of hope: your past does not have to determine your future.

Porn promises freedom. So why does it leave so many people hiding browser histories, keeping secrets, making promises they can't keep, and wondering whether they'll ever truly be free?In this episode of Truth Behind the Mike, Mike Stone takes an honest Christian look at pornography, lust, shame, secrecy, marriage, accountability, and what genuine freedom in Christ actually looks like.This isn't an episode designed to pile more shame onto someone who's already struggling.It's about bringing what has been hidden into the light.Pornography doesn't simply affect what we look at. Over time, it can shape the way we see other people, sexuality, intimacy, marriage—and even ourselves. Scripture presents a radically different vision: human beings created in the image of God, sexuality designed for covenant and intimacy, and freedom that doesn't require secrecy.We'll talk about:• Why pornography promises freedom but often produces hiding• What Jesus actually taught about lust• Why Joseph RUNNING from temptation matters• How pornography can turn people into something we consume• Why secrecy strengthens the cycle• Pornography's impact on marriage and intimacy• The difference between conviction and condemnation• Why Romans 8:1 matters when you've failed again• Finding the deeper wound beneath the behavior• Practical boundaries that can help you resist temptation• Confession, accountability, counseling and Christian community• How spouses can respond after discovering pornography use• What real freedom in Christ looks likeMaybe you've promised God, “Never again.”Maybe you've deleted the history.Maybe nobody knows.Maybe you've made it 30 days, six months or even a year—and then found yourself right back where you started.You don't need to become better at hiding.You need freedom.━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Dr. Matthew Sleeth is a former emergency room physician who has become one of the most influential Christian leaders in America. He is the executive director of Blessed Earth and the author of a new book, Hope Always: How to Be a Force for Life in a Culture of Suicide. Matthew talks about how he raised his kids in a Christian household, pulled the plug on screens and television, and focused hard on the Word of God. He also discusses the skyrocketing rates of suicide in America, zooming in on the magnitude of an increasingly prevalent problem. His newest book examines the spiritual forces behind suicide and how devoted Christians are far less likely to act on these destructive thoughts. God wants us to choose life, Matthew says, but Satan is constantly attempting to push humans toward death. TAKEAWAYS Christians act on suicidal thoughts four times less often than non-Christians Secular culture presents a hopeless, rudderless picture of life The voice of suicide is the voice of Satan, the voice of your enemy Contact the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline via call, text, or chat if you need help at 988lifeline.org

What happens when you pray faithfully—and nothing seems to change?Pastor and author Noah Filipiak joins Karen Potter and Rob Stoddard on the Covenant Eyes Podcast for an honest conversation about unanswered prayer, suffering, temptation, technology, burnout, and learning to trust God when life doesn't turn out the way you hoped.Noah shares how his own journey led him back to the Psalms and ultimately inspired his new 40-day devotional, Shelter in the Storm: 40 Psalms on God's Faithfulness.The Psalms don't pretend that following God means life will always work out the way we expect. They give us language for grief, anger, fear, disappointment, and even the moments when God seems silent. As Noah explains, there's freedom in realizing that we don't have to hide those emotions from God.The conversation also explores an important connection: when circumstances don't change, we often look for ways to escape what we're feeling. For some, that can mean unhealthy digital habits, fantasy, isolation, or other coping mechanisms. Noah explains why real healing requires more than simply changing behavior—it requires community, honesty, spiritual formation, and a deeper understanding of God's faithfulness.You'll also hear Noah discuss:• Why unanswered prayer can create a crisis of faith• What the Psalms teach us about suffering• How instant gratification is shaping our expectations of God• Why social media can distort our perception of reality• How Jesus understands suffering personally• Why boundaries and margin matter for avoiding burnout• The power of vulnerability and Christian community• How Beyond the Battle is helping men find lasting connection and support• Noah's new devotional, Shelter in the StormNoah's message is especially powerful for anyone who has ever wondered: “God, why aren't You changing this?”Learn more about Noah Filipiak: https://NoahFilipiak.comBeyond the Battle groups: https://BeyondTheBattle.netLook for Shelter in the Storm: 40 Psalms on God's Faithfulness from Our Daily Bread Publishing.Subscribe to the Covenant Eyes Podcast for more conversations about faith, relationships, recovery, accountability, and living with integrity in a digital world.Wonder if you are addicted to porn?Take the free PAUS Assessment and find out!https://cvnteyes.co/testThe description's recovery connection comes directly from Noah's explanation that difficult circumstances can drive people toward unhealthy coping mechanisms and that they may not recognize the connection between their circumstances and their struggle.#UnansweredPrayer #TrustGod #ChristianPodcast #Faith #Psalms #CovenantEyesChapters00:00 When God Doesn't Answer Right Away00:36 Meet Noah Filipiak01:12 Noah's Story & Beyond the Battle02:36 Introducing Shelter in the Storm03:24 Why We Turn to Unhealthy Coping05:23 The Problem With the “Santa Claus” View of God06:30 What Happens When Prayer Isn't Answered?07:14 Finding God in the Psalms09:09 Fear, Anxiety & Hope in Scripture09:55 How Technology Changed Our Expectations10:21 Growing Up in an Instant-Gratification World12:08 Fantasy vs. Reality12:57 Can We Be Angry With God?14:20 When Our Picture of God Shatters15:05 There Is No Prayer Formula16:15 Why Christians Need Lament17:27 Mental Health, Struggle & Elijah18:06 Learning How to Suffer Well19:07 Jesus Understands Our Suffering21:18 Noah's Battle With Burnout22:08 Creating Healthy Limits & Boundaries24:32 Making Space for What Matters25:30 How Beyond the Battle Works26:32 Why Long-Term Community Matters28:47 Why Recovery Needs Community29:29 Why Online Groups Can Work30:24 Noah's New Book & Resources32:05 Closing ThoughtsSend us your feedback!Try Covenant Eyes for FREE today!Use Promo Code: FreePodcast © 2026 Covenant Eyes, All Rights Reserved

Can the Bible be taught to public school students during the school day? Nate Lundquist, filmmaker behind the documentary *Off School Property*, joins Karen Potter to explore the relationship between the Bible, public education, and an opportunity many Christian parents don't know exists.Nate shares how his work with LifeWise Academy inspired *Off School Property*, a documentary examining the history of the Bible and American public education and how optional Bible education can be offered to public school students during school hours.In this conversation, Nate explains how released-time Bible education works, including three important criteria: instruction takes place off school property, is privately funded, and requires parental permission. He and Karen also discuss common misconceptions, opposition from school boards, the role of parents and local communities, and why Nate believes Christians should better understand both the history and the opportunities available today.You'll also hear why Nate created *Off School Property*, what he hopes Christian parents take away from the film, and how communities interested in Bible education can explore starting a LifeWise Academy program.**In this episode:**• Can Bible education happen during the public school day?• What is LifeWise Academy?• Why *Off School Property* was created• The history of the Bible and public education• Common misconceptions about released-time Bible education• The role of parental permission and private funding• How Christian parents can get involved in their communities• Where to watch *Off School Property*If you're a Christian parent with children in public school—or you're interested in the relationship between faith, education, parental rights, and American culture—this is a conversation worth watching.Learn more about Covenant Eyes and our mission to help families live free from pornography:https://cvnteyes.co/4gb6xme#PublicSchools #ChristianParents #BibleEducation #lifewise Time-Stamped Chapters:00:00 Can the Bible Be Taught During Public School?00:33 Meet Nate Lundquist & Off School Property01:01 How LifeWise Academy Works01:52 Why Nate Made This Documentary03:31 The History of the Bible in American Schools04:49 Why Some School Boards Push Back05:52 Laws Surrounding Released-Time Bible Education06:37 3 Major Misconceptions About Bible Classes07:48 What Nate Hopes Christians Learn09:21 What Christian Parents Can Actually Do10:55 Where to Watch Off School Property12:01 How to Bring LifeWise to Your CommunitySend us your feedback!Try Covenant Eyes for FREE today!Use Promo Code: FreePodcast © 2026 Covenant Eyes, All Rights Reserved

They talk through recent cases where AI gave children harmful responses during moments of crisis, and why real relationships — and the real hope found in Christ — can't be replaced by artificial ones.Whether you're a parent, grandparent, pastor, or just curious about ministries doing meaningful work with kids, this conversation is a powerful reminder that even in an increasingly digital world, children can be bold witnesses for the gospel — and hope is never out of reach.---------------------------------------------How Addicted to Porn Are You?

In this episode of the Covenant Eyes Podcast, Karen Potter and Rob Stoddard sit down with marriage ministry leaders Brad and Heidi Mitchell to discuss one of the most overlooked yet powerful habits in marriage: praying together. While many couples pray individually, surprisingly few regularly pray as husband and wife—and the impact can be profound when they do.Drawing from their new devotional resource and decades of marriage ministry experience, Brad and Heidi share why prayer helps couples navigate conflict, make decisions, weather difficult transitions, and stay connected to both God and each other. They explain how bringing challenges before God changes the dynamic of marriage by shifting couples from opposition to partnership and helping them pursue God's will together.The conversation also explores common marriage struggles, including communication breakdowns, forgiveness, major life transitions, digital distractions, and sexual integrity. Through practical advice and biblical wisdom, Brad and Heidi offer encouragement to couples who want to strengthen their relationship and build a Christ-centered marriage that can withstand life's challenges.Whether you're newly married, navigating a difficult season, or simply looking to grow closer as a couple, this episode serves as a reminder that healthy marriages are built intentionally—and that prayer may be one of the most powerful tools God has given us to strengthen them.Episode Topics Discussed• Why so few couples pray together regularly• The power of prayer in strengthening marriage• How prayer helps resolve conflict and improve communication• Keeping Christ at the center of your relationship• Common marriage struggles and how to navigate them• Major life transitions and their impact on marriage• The importance of forgiveness and extending grace• Sexual integrity, accountability, and finding hope after failure• Technology, social media, and digital distractions in marriage• Practical ways couples can reconnect and communicate betterResources MentionedBuild Your MarriagePraying Together devotional by Brad & Heidi Mitchell Covenant Eyes accountability and monitoring toolsTimestamps00:00 – Why So Few Couples Pray Together00:23 – Meet Brad & Heidi Mitchell00:47 – Building a Marriage Ministry from Personal Struggles01:32 – The Inspiration Behind Their New Prayer Devotional03:51 – The Shocking Statistics About Couples Who Pray Together04:37 – Marriage Topics Couples Should Be Praying About05:41 – Keeping Christ at the Center of Marriage06:50 – How Prayer Changes Conflict and Decision Making08:08 – Common Challenges Couples Face Today09:42 – Forgiveness, Healing, and Moving Forward Together10:30 – Finding Hope After Sexual Betrayal and Broken Trust13:39 – Temptation, Thoughts, and Spiritual Growth14:40 – Their Goal of Visiting 80 Countries by Age 8017:44 – Technology, Social Media, and Marriage Challenges19:04 – Rebuilding Connection Through Eye Contact and Communication19:41 – Practical Boundaries for Phones and Screen Time21:20 – Communicating Needs Without Blame21:42– Marriage, Perseverance, and Putting Christ First22:20 – Resources for Couples and Final EncouragementSend us your feedback!Try Covenant Eyes for FREE today!Use Promo Code: FreePodcast © 2026 Covenant Eyes, All Rights Reserved

A hidden struggle can exist behind outward success, and for many men, achievement becomes the mask that keeps deeper battles buried.

In this episode of the Covenant Eyes Podcast, a powerful challenge is laid out: what if the real crisis facing men today isn't just behavior—but identity? Theo McMonagle is joined by John Heinen and Devin Schadt of The Catholic Gentleman to unpack the deeper roots of masculinity, shame, and purpose in a culture that has lost its way.Together, they explore how the breakdown of authentic masculinity has led to isolation, confusion, and destructive habits—and why reclaiming identity as sons, husbands, and fathers is essential for healing. Drawing from Scripture, personal experience, and years of ministry, John and Devin point to a countercultural truth: real strength is found not in control or dominance, but in sacrifice, responsibility, and self-giving love.This conversation dives into the role of shame, the importance of brotherhood, and the necessity of spiritual discipline in forming men who can lead with courage and integrity. They also address cultural extremes—from passivity to domination—and offer a grounded, faith-filled vision of masculinity rooted in relationship, purpose, and truth.Whether you're navigating your own struggles, leading a family, or seeking clarity on what it means to be a man in today's world, this episode offers both conviction and hope: transformation begins when you embrace your identity and allow God to work through your life.Episode Topics Discussed• The crisis of masculinity and loss of identity• Why shame keeps men stuck and isolated• The difference between passivity and domination• Reclaiming masculinity through responsibility and virtue• The role of brotherhood and accountability• Why prayer and discipline are essential for growth• Cultural confusion around relationships and marriage• The impact of fatherlessness on young men• Learning to embrace sacrifice, not avoid it• How authentic masculinity is rooted in self-giving loveResources MentionedThe Catholic Gentleman Fathers of Saint Joseph The Meaning and Mystery of Man by Devin Schadt Timestamps06:26 – The Root of Lust & Disordered Desire11:36 – How Shame Impacts Men's Lives17:50 – Embracing Littleness & True Strength18:46 – Forming Men Who Take Responsibility21:39 – Brotherhood, Prayer & Spiritual Growth24:55 – Discipline, Habits & Self-Mastery29:53 – Cultural Confusion Around Masculinity33:36 – Marriage, Fear & Misconceptions34:43 – The Power of Relationships & Purpose38:54 – Love, Sacrifice & the Meaning of the Cross44:55 – How Division Distorts Masculinity and Femininity                                                    47:13 – Marriage as a Mirror: Identity, Growth, and Self-Awareness                                51:29 – Fatherhood: What Sons and Daughters Need59:31 – Final Encouragement & Living with PurposeSend us your feedback!Try Covenant Eyes for FREE today!Use Promo Code: FreePodcast © 2026 Covenant Eyes, All Rights Reserved

In this episode of the Covenant Eyes Podcast, host Karen Potter sits down with Ashley Jameson of Pure Desire to talk about one of the most overlooked conversations in the church today—how these struggles are impacting women, marriages, and entire congregations. While many still view this as a men's issue, the reality is far more complex and far more widespread.Ashley shares from years of experience walking alongside individuals and churches, highlighting both the challenges and the hope she has seen firsthand. From powerful stories of freedom to the ongoing gaps in resources, she explains why this is one of the greatest discipleship opportunities facing the church right now. When people feel safe enough to bring their stories into the light, real healing can begin.The conversation also explores the unique challenges women face, including shame, betrayal, trauma, and confusion around identity and worth. Ashley offers practical insight for churches, leaders, and individuals who want to take the next step—reminding listeners that healing is not instant, but it is possible with the right support, community, and commitment to the process.Episode Topics Discussed• Ashley Davidson's role at Pure Desire and ministry background• The vision and impact of Pure Desire's counseling and group programs• Her book Girl Talk and resources for moms and daughters• The growing need for continued care beyond initial recovery• Why this issue is a major discipleship opportunity for the church• Current statistics and the gap in church resources• How small churches can implement support systems• The importance of testimonies and creating safe spaces• Challenges women face, including shame, betrayal, and insecurity• Why repeated struggles often point to deeper work that needs to be done• The realities facing younger generations today• Trauma, betrayal, and how it impacts the mind, body, and relationships• Signs of unresolved trauma and unhealthy relational patterns• How churches can better support individuals and spouses• Encouragement for those feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or aloneResources MentionedPure Desire Ministries – https://puredesire.orgPure Desire Online Groups and Church Partnerships- https://puredesire.org/groups Girl Talk by Ashley Jameson- https://puredesire.org/shop/girl-talkTimestamps00:00 – Why This Conversation Matters00:32 – Introduction to Ashley Davidson00:37 – Pure Desire's Impact and Ministry Overview03:15 – Girl Talk and New Resource Development06:44 – How to Connect with Pure Desire07:28 – The Reality in Churches Today11:30 – Supporting Small Churches and Leaders14:10 – Addressing Hidden Struggles in the Church16:39 – Unique Challenges Women Face19:38 – The Younger Generation and Growing Needs23:06 – Trauma, Betrayal, and Its Impact25:59 – Signs of Unresolved Trauma28:31 – How Churches Can Better Support Spouses31:32 – Final Encouragement: You Are Not AloneSend us your feedback!Try Covenant Eyes for FREE today!Use Promo Code: FreePodcast © 2026 Covenant Eyes, All Rights Reserved

Dear Humans, NOTE: Jesus was out sick today. Instead, I hung out with "your weirdo friend," Dr. G! They're a community college rhetorician and gender studies teacher who studies how people talk about things and the impact of that. Make sure to follow them here. Today we covered: Why the way we talk about Epstein matters, and why Dr. G wants less "thrill" and more "consequences, please" The dominoes falling faster overseas, and why international paper trails make coverups way harder to pull off Mike Johnson as a haunted Victorian doll, a creepy elf on the shelf, and the Covenant Eyes "accountability buddy" nightmare that turns your stomach for a reason Why they want you stuck in fear mode, and how hopelessness is their favorite drug Dead internet theory, bots, and the idea that likes are being manipulated to make creators feel alone, even when views are still huge "Don't give him oxygen" as a strategy, plus your sanity check on skipping the State of the Union and choosing literally anything else The Duluth power-and-control wheel, and why it maps disturbingly well onto authoritarian tactics What people can actually do: neighborhood-level organizing, mutual aid, taking marching orders from experienced organizers, and letting "big quiet dudes" run interference for community safety Happy Tuesday, humans. Enjoy this episode with Dr. G, your weirdo friend, and please, for the love of Me, I hope you're doing anything else right now instead of giving Tangerine Palpatine more of your precious time. Love, God

After pushing himself to the brink trying to live up to the pace and standards Phil carried for decades, Jase walks away with a new appreciation for just how much his dad handled. The guys explore how Scripture reframes work and rest as part of God's design rather than opposites, especially in light of Jesus' resurrection. They close by reflecting on the difference between perishable and imperishable bodies, and why the hope of new creation gives meaning to both our limits now and what lies ahead.
