The battle for sexual purity and how to best understand our loved one who is caught in the trap of sexual sin, all while acknowledging the hurt and betrayal that accompanies these sexual addictions. Pornography is big business in America and across the world. From books to magazines, movies to the internet, men AND women are lured into pornography every day. The goal of this big business is to hook you in with no regard for the hurt and destruction that it causes in our homes and relationships. Most of those who are caught in this addictive trap, however, desperately want to break free from this devastating habit and restore their relationships that have been affected by this sexual sin. Our guest today, Fred Stoeker who co-wrote the book, “Battle On, Battle Over,” along with his wife, Brenda, is here to show us that it is possible to win the battle for sexual purity and rebuild the relationships that have been affected by it. He is going to talk to us about how it is possible to shut down sexual sin and experience total victory in this area once and for all and how to deal with the hurt that comes along with this addiction.Book: Battle On, Battle OverWebsite: www.fredstoeker.comWebsite: battleonbattleover.comBible: NIV Study BibleLogos Bible SoftwareJournaling NotebookIf you enjoyed this episode, be sure to listen to more!https://www.coffeeandbibletime.com/podcastAlabaster Beautiful individual Books of the Bible Logos Bible Software Use our link for an exclusive discount of 10% off Logos packages + 5 free books for new customers.Free Bible Study Resource This free Bible Study resource is a must-have to enhance your Quiet time!Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

Preparing Your Son for Every Man's Battle Fred Stoeker pt 2 Fred's ministry is to help men get free from sexual sin and then teach their children how to remain free. His book, “Preparing Your Son for Every Man's Battle” is actually a book about teaching both, sons and daughters, how to win this battle. There is a 10-chapter “Parent's Section” that is designed to teach mothers and fathers how to connect with their kids on this topic.  And this is a topic that, if you are in the trenches with teenagers right now, you know that you know this is needful in this day and time. Amen! What are some of, what you call, the “rules of the game” that we should be aware of when discussing this subject with our children? Fred shares a couple of stories that helps us to understand the importance of discussing these sensitive subjects with you children… In your book, you share a section called, “Treat her like your sister.” Explain that for us.. You share a lot of great information in the section of “They Eyes Have It.” Can you talk a bit about this part of the transformation from boyhood to manhood as it relates to what we are discussing? As you were going through these steps with your children, how did they respond as the next child, son or daughter, was being led to “grandma's room?”  Was there any teasing or things like that between siblings? How did this help your relationships once they left home? Fred, this has been so interesting. How can someone obtain a copy of your book, “Preparing Your Son for Every Man's Battle?”  Is it on Amazon? If someone wanted to get in touch with you, to ask a question or get more information – or possibly to do an interview like this, how can they do that? How can someone get in touch with you? I'll put the links to all of this down in the show notes below. Folks, Fred has been on this program a few times, sharing absolutely valuable, Godly information on marriage, manhood and family and some of the trials, tests and problems men (and women as well) face in this day and time we are living in right now. I urge you to drop down into the show notes and click the links right there to get in touch with Fred Stoeker. Check out his website – it has a lot of valuable information right there at your fingertips on this and other subject matter related to it. Amen! I'll put the links to a few of Fred's other books in the show notes as well. You definitely need to order your copy of this book, “Preparing Your Son for Every Man's Battle,” if you have a school age son. I also recommend you pick up one or all of the books we've covered so far as well. These books will help to make sure you have a Godly marriage that is hugely successful in avoiding a lot of the pitfalls of pornography and other things that the devil is using to trip up even well meaning Christians in this day and time. Fred, thank you, again, for coming back on the program today. I look forward to our next interview. Folks, that is all the time we have for today. For Fred Stoeker and myself, this is Pastor Bob reminding you to BE BLESSED IN ALL THAT YOU DO!

Amen! To discuss all of this, help me welcome to the program, our good friend, Fred Stoeker!  Fred, it is so good to have you back on the program today. Other than that brief information I just shared, and for the sake of those that may not have heard our prior interviews, can you tell us in your own words, “Who is Fred Stoeker?” Your book, “Preparing Your Son for Every Man's Battle,” was first published back in 2010. But it is just as valid today as the day it was first released, correct? As I was going through and preparing for our interview, I noticed you use some sports metaphors to relate the importance of properly preparing our kids for this phase of their life. That transition period through puberty and beyond. For example, you shared how you came in last place in a 440 relay and how that affected you. Can you discuss how we can use these metaphors to help understand the topic of preparing our sons for this sexual battle they are about to endure? Can this book be used if it's just mom raising the boy and dad is out of the picture? I like the analogy you use about a football game to describe raising your kids between the first half and the second half…ages 1-11 and 12 and beyond. Can you share about the “imaginary audience” that young teens feel is always watching them at that second stage.? What are some of, what you call, the “rules of the game” that we should be aware of when discussing this subject with our children? Fred shares a couple of stories that helps us to understand the importance of discussing these sensitive subjects with you children… Folks, Fred has been on this program a few times, sharing absolutely valuable, Godly information on marriage, manhood and family and some of the trials, tests and problems men (and women as well) face in this day and time we are living in right now.

It is UNMASKED MONDAY! We are one month away from Run To Stop It. This is a movement that raises money for organizations that are fighting directly against sex trafficking and providing resources for women looking to get out of that industry. Amy and I are huge supporters of Run To Stop It. Starting with this episode, and going through October 20, we are donating one dollar for every play generated by the next five episodes. I'm hoping you can help me by sharing this episode and encouraging others to listen. You can't talk about sex trafficking without talking about demand and pornography. That's what we are going to do the next few weeks. Today's guest is Fred Stoeker. Fred is the co-author of several books, including Every Man's Battle - a guide for men to overcome the battle with porn. Fred is no stranger to pornography temptations and what they can do to a marriage. After stumbling upon his father's Playboy magazine under his Dad's bed in first grade, Fred struggled with pornographic materials for the next twenty years or so. We take an open and honest look why men struggle with porn, some practical wisdom Fred learned about overcoming lust and restoring broken trust. Most importantly, we get into how men can use God to heal. You can learn more about Fred here: https://fredstoeker.com/ And be sure to check out neilgetzlow.com to learn more about Neil and his journey.

Every Heart Restored Fred Stoeker pt 2 Fred Stoeker is back today as he continues to minister to men – and women – who are overwhelmed and under extreme conviction because of their addiction to pornography.  In our previous two interviews, Fred shared highlights from his book, “Every Man's Battle” in the first interview and in the last interview, we discussed his book, “Battle On – Battle Over.” In that book, Fred educated us on “The Stealth Trap.” Amen! If you missed either of those episodes, go back to the archives and dig them out. Amen. Just type in “Fred Stoeker” in the search area on our website and you will see them pop right up. Praise God. Today, Fred is going to be sharing with us from his book, “Every Heart Restored.”  This book was written by both, Fred and his wife, Brenda. This book in particular has been written for the wives of husbands that are sexually addicted to porn. Wives in this situation are usually caught off guard and crushed by this type of betrayal and feel like they are now caught in a nightmare. Fred is here today to share insight into this and offer help, hope and encouragement if you or someone you may know is in this situation. Today is part two of a great two part interview! So it the husbands responsibility to demonstrate to his wife that he can be trusted? Why do husbands “seem to be” restored more quickly than wives in the aftermath of her discovery of his addiction? What if he never changes?  What if he continues to pursue his addiction? I know we are talking here about your book, “Every Heart Restored,” and what happens when a wife discovers her husband is addicted to porn. But would these same principles apply the other way around? What if a husband discovers his wife is addicted to porn? Fred, this has been so interesting. How can someone obtain a copy of this book, “Every Heart Restored?”  Is it on Amazon? If someone wanted to reach out to you, to ask a question or possibly do an interview such as this, how can they do that? How can someone get in touch with you? I'll put links to all this in the show notes below. Folks, this day and time in which we live is definitely a pornography driven generation. You can't watch a commercial on television without being exposed to it. Fred Stoeker and his wife, Brenda, have put together this very important book, “Every Heart Restored,” for such a time as this. I urge you, if you or someone you know is having issues in the area of pornography and you feel trapped with no way out, drop down into the show notes and reach out to Fred Stoeker. Order his books. Especially if you are woman whose husband is caught in this evil trap. Order “Every Heart Restored” right now. Amen! Drop down into the show notes and all the links are right there. Fred, once again, thank you for coming on the program today and sharing all about this great book, “Every Heart Restored.” I'm in agreement with you, this is definitely a needful book for this day and time in which we live.

Help me welcome back to the program, Fred Stoeker!  Fred, it is so good to have you come back on the program and sharing this important information with our listeners! For those that may have missed our earlier interviews, can you share with us in your own words, “Who is Fred Stoeker?” You wrote this book with your wife… What initially brought this to your mind that this would be a good idea to write a book that ministered to the women who have been caught up in the shocking revelation that their husband is addicted to pornography? What is usually the first thoughts and reactions when a woman discovers her husband has been watching pornography? Is it true that a husband's porn addiction is not caused by something lacking in his wife. It is not caused by his wife's failing. Do some women feel like they are weak by struggling in an effort to trust her husband again? So it the husbands responsibility to demonstrate to his wife that he can be trusted? Why do husbands “seem to be” restored more quickly than wives in the aftermath of her discovery of his addiction? What if he never changes?  What if he continues to pursue his addiction?

God has given Fred a voice in His Kingdom to share all that he's learned about how to defend our vulnerable lies, grow into true manhood, and for husbands to connect fully with their spouses. Since growing up in Iowa, and then going on to graduate from Stanford University, he has become a best-selling author of the “Every Man” series, and Fred is a conference speaker who challenges men to become sexually pure while reconnecting in truly intimate relationships with their wives. He also encourages both men and women to rise-up and to live a Christian lifestyle, rather than simply doing a Christian life.In this episode, he talks about being hooked on visual sexual sin and masturbation. But now he shares his experience and life change that came about through God's grace and self-control and self-discipline (fruit of the Spirit). He challenges men and women to realize that they can be set free, for good. Fred's life change took place over thirty years – that was the last time he was lusting and masturbating, after going to his computer and TV for pleasure.Here's how Fred describes his journey. “First, I engaged the battle. Second, I listened closely to God's leading on the next steps. There are two vulnerabilities in malesexuality that makes it easy to fall into sexual sin. The first vulnerability is that of the eyes and mind. I wrote the book “Every Man's Battle” to discuss how to set up the defenses for that vulnerability. The second one is the tie between our sexuality andour wounds, stress, and pain. I called this the Stealth Vulnerability, and my wife Brenda and I have recently written “Battle On, Battle Over” to teach men and women how to defend this vulnerability”.Fred has been nominated for numerous writing awards; he's won two Gold Medal Lion Awards and two Silver Medal Lion Awards for writing excellence. Key verses: Job 31:1 and 7, Luke 6:46Websites: https://www.battleonbattleover.com and https://fredstoeker.com Facebook: Fred Stoeker MinistriesInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/fredstoeker acourageousrecovery.com

Bob is a child of God in Nashville, Tennessee. As an entrepreneur, podcast host, and former professional athlete, he's been blessed to live a multi-faceted life. As a professional baseball player, he traveled the nation and performed in stadiums of over 15,000 people. As an author, speaker, and podcast host, he's worked with thought-leaders, bestselling authors, and world-class musicians, including people like Rory Vaden, Rachel Cruze, Fred Stoeker, and Jason Gray. His podcast (That Singles' Show) is hosted by KCBI Christian Radio in Dallas, and my work has been featured on various other nationally syndicated radio outlets like WAY-FM and THE FISH. He has an inborn desire for helping people discover their passion for God, and that was the reason he wrote his first book, Our Hearts' Desire.Before he wrote Our Hearts' Desire, he played minor league baseball for the Toronto Blue Jays and the St. Louis Cardinals. He played in dozens of states and multiple countries throughout his career, and chased what many would call a childhood dream. But I can honestly say that God wasn't his focus. At that point in his life, the crowds seemed more powerful and the relationships more tangible. He could feel the impact those things had on him, but he couldn't say the same about God.

Battle On – Battle Over Fred Stoeker pt 3 I am truly blessed when I can bring a guest back on this program to provide value, information, impartation and inspiration to you all over again.  Today's guest checks off each of those gifts and qualifications – and then some. Fred Stoker was on just a few weeks ago as we were discussing his book, “Every Man's Battle” If you missed that interview – you missed a good one! Amen!  I highly recommend you go back and listen to both episodes of that great two part interview.  We discussed the current spiritual battle taking place that has been trying to destroy this generation of men, even right now. In that book, Fred discusses the first of what he calls, the “first great vulnerability” to men, centering around sexual sin.  The book itself was written 25 years ago, but was updated in 2020.  But this book is so impactful because the Holy Spirit is still able to talk with us today through that book, and bring all things relevant to today! Amen! I've invited Fred back to discuss his second book, “BATTLE ON – BATTLE OVER” In this book, Fred discusses what he calls the “second great vulnerability,” which is the “Stealth Trap.”  And this one will surprise you! You will hear somethings today that you may have heard about, but when Fred lays out the deception being played by the devil right now, your Spiritual eyes will see it for what it and your mind will be shocked at just how obvious this is and we just have not recognized it for what it is…amen! This is the conclusion of a great three part interview with Fred Stoeker! What about the churches and things going on in the church? If this is happening inside the homes, it has to be affecting what is happening in the church as well, correct? Let's take this next question in three parts… Part one:  The husband has the problem. Part two:  The wife has the problem. Part three: BOTH have a problem with this… How should they proceed to obtain help? What if one or the other refuses to acknowledge a problem with pornography or refuses the offer for help?  Like Alcohol Anonymous has Alan-On.  Is there something the one spouse or the other can do? I knew this issue was bad. I knew it was out there. Just as you, I've had issues in my past as well. But I had no idea it had gone from a “problem” to a “festering wound” under the surface – especially in the church. Fred, this has been so interesting and we are about out of time. How can someone obtain a copy of your book, “Battle On – Battle Over?”  Is it on Amazon? And the book we discussed last time, “Every Man's Battle”  .  It's available on Amazon as well, correct. Folks, this battle is real. Amen!  It is destroying the very fabric of our families and our churches. The thing is, as I said at the end or our last interview, nothing the devil is doing is new. He is still doing the same things today. But with these books published by Fred Stoker and his ministry – YOU can learn to walk in victory. YOU can learn to strengthen the marriage bond BEFORE it becomes broken. YOU can learn how to restore the marriage bond and strengthen if something has happened to you.

This is part two of what turned out to be a great three part interview! What is the second vulnerability which you were talking about – “The Stealth Trap?” You mentioned that women are now being hooked on porn at an even faster rate than men. Are they responding to stress in their life like you just shared about men? How does this affect the families? It was one thing when one parent was involved, but now both are involved. That has to affect the children as well, correct? What about the churches and things going on in the church? If this is happening inside the homes, it has to be affecting what is happening in the church as well, correct? Folks, this battle is real. Amen!  It is destroying the very fabric of our families and our churches. The thing is, as I said at the end or our last interview, nothing the devil is doing is new.

Anyway, help me welcome back to the program, Fred Stoker!  Fred, it is so good to see you again and to have back on the program! I know we covered this question before, but for the sake of those that did not hear your prior interview (yet) – can you share with us in your own words, “Who is Fred Stoeker?” Just to cover your background a bit more, from what we learned in the prior interview, you are the author or co-author of several books that help men to strengthen their marriages. In fact, you've created a ministry to assist men in this aspect. When you published “Every Man's Battle”  you actually thought you were “one and done” as far a book writing and publishing on this topic was concerned, correct? What convinced you, moving forward, that writing and publishing books was to become your ministry effort? Your new book, “Battle On – Battle Over,” deals with pornography, but from a woman's perspective.  But not just how a husband's addiction affects her or the family (that is what the first book is about). With that as the backdrop, can tell us a little WHY you wrote, “Battle On – Battle Over?” Does the pornography affect men and women the same way? I mean the “dopamine” levels, and things like that?

Every Man's Battle  Fred Stoeker pt 2 American men are in a tough position. We live in a culture awash with sensual images which are available twenty-four hours a day, through a variety of media. It is virtually impossible to avoid such temptations…but, thankfully, not impossible to rise above them. Our guest today says the process of rising about those temptations begins when men realize two things: First, they aren't alone. Second, there is help. Real, honest, life-changing help. You also have a section on providing a clear path for avoiding or ending addictive behavior. Can you share a little about that for us? Share with us about “Living True Ministries.” How has your ministry evolved since you started? Explain your motto, “To Be, Rather Than to Seem.” How many books have you authored over the years? When will “BATTLE ON – BATTLE OVER” will be published? (PRE ORDER Available now…) If someone wanted to reach out, to ask a question or find more information, how can they do that? How can someone get in touch with you? I'll put links to all of this in the show notes below. Folks, the things Fred Stoker has shared with us is real. Men struggle with these issues, I'll say “all the time.” We may not like to admit it. But we do. Fred has not only discovered the true secret to overcoming the enemies attacks on our minds and marriages, he shares steps you can take to WIN THE BATTLE!  Praise God! Think about this, destroying the marriage covenant is the first thing the devil attacked in the Garden of Eden, trying to bring separation between the man and the woman. Nothing the devil does is new. He is still doing the same things today. But with these books published by Fred Stoker and his ministry – YOU can learn to walk in victory. YOU can learn to strengthen the marriage bond BEFORE it becomes broken. YOU can learn how to restore the marriage bond and strengthen if something has happened to you. Do not allow this opportunity to pass you by. You are listening to this episode today for a reason.

Our guest today says the process of rising about those temptations begins when men realize two things: First, they aren't alone. Second, there is help. Real, honest, life-changing help. First question I always start with is this, other than that brief information, can you share with us in your own words, “Who is Fred Stoker?” As I was preparing for today's interview, I read that you attended a marriage seminar, when you were single? Is that right?  Why? But it all paid off after that when your dad arranged a “double date” for you? How old were you at that time? You are the author or co-author of several books that help men to strengthen their marriages. In fact, you've created a ministry to assist men in this aspect. When you published “Every Man's Battle,” you actually thought you were “one and done” as far a book writing and publishing on this topic was concerned, correct? What convinced you this was to become your ministry effort? You updated this book in 2020. Some of the things you've shared in this updated version include, “Practical solutions to rein in wandering eyes and lustful thoughts.” That may be a great topic to bring out in this day and time where sensuality is the norm on television programs and television ads today. How do you cover this in your book? Can you share with us what you discovered as far as a connection between pornography and sexual disfunction? Folks, the things Fred Stoker has shared with us is real. Men struggle with these issues, I'll say “all the time.” We may not like to admit it. But we do.

Bitwa każdego mężczyzny. Podtytuł: Zwycięstwo w wojnie z pokusami seksualnymi – krok po kroku Wyzwanie, przed jakim stoi każdy mężczyzna… Bitwa, którą każdy mężczyzna może wygrać Za pośrednictwem telewizji i internetu, czasopism i filmów mężczyźni są nieustannie bombardowani obrazami o treści zmysłowej. Nie sposób uniknąć takich pokus… lecz, na szczęście, można się im oprzeć. Obalając koncepcję, jakoby mężczyźni nie byli w stanie zapanować nad swoimi myślami i oczami, autorzy Bitwy każdego mężczyzny przytaczają historie dziesiątek mężczyzn, którzy wyrwali się z sideł niemoralności seksualnej. Przedstawiają też praktyczny, szczegółowy plan osiągnięcia czystości seksualnej – doskonały zarówno dla tych, którzy upadli w przeszłości, jak i tych, którzy chcą być mocni dzisiaj, a także tych wszystkich, którzy chcą pokonać pokusy w przyszłości. Nie ma bardziej powszechnego wroga naszej prawdziwej męskości niż niewłaściwe ukierunkowanie lub wypaczenie naszych funkcji seksualnych.

Heather and Ryan sit down (part 2) with Shannon Kahn on how God has worked through his own life.Shannon has dealt with sexual identity issues growing up and has dealt with marriage and divorce.  Male influences in his life were extremely hurtful, abusive, or dealt with sexual abuse growing up, so didn't want to be a male. Almost all the men on both sides of his family have dealt with alcoholism. Anger went along with alcoholism with most of those adult males. Doesn't remember being told "I love you" much growing up. Didn't have a good view of what it meant to be a man.  Didn't want to be that type of person what he had seen. In his  head he didn't want to be a man like that, but also knew he didn't want to be a women. Had mostly girls as friends because they were safe, the guys his age were also that way so wasn't comfortable being around them.  That all shaped his difficulty with sexual identity. Sexually abused when he was young and introduced to porn at an early age.  Called gay during middle school, because he was different, didn't fit into the normal. Where you in church circles at that time? Parents dropped them off at church but it was pretty conservative. He didn't remember hearing about salvation. Just tried to do good things and be a good person.  Always had a basis of understanding that there was a God and he knew that that was not how God created him. There was always something to prevent him from crossing the line. The struggle was always in his head than external.How did you work through that? He eventually saw what other father figures looked like in a healthy way with other families as he got older and that changed his view. He got to see other family dynamics and that helped him to heal and grow. And also to be around community. It is crazy the power of influence. What you see is what you know. Was saved his senior year of high school. Went to Creation; that was the first time he remembesr hearing the Gospel message. The assumptions that we make as Christians are so powerful and harmful. There was a constant that he knew God didn't create him that way. As believers there is always something that we have to deny ourselves of.  If we did everything our human nature wanted it would be disaster.How could have the church helped? Doesn't  remember being in environments where sexual identity was actually spoken about.  A lot of guys don't want to talk to other guys about it. The enemy is winning when we don't talk about it.  It is so easy to isolate and believe that you are the only one going through this. Resources:Wounded Heart,  book and workbook by Dan B.

When Fred Stoeker was playing baseball at Stanford, he had four girlfriends at the same time. He was having sex with three of them, and he was engaged to be married to two of them.

 Isaiah 55:11 Books: Every Man's Battle by Stephen by Arterburn, Fred Stoeker and Mike Yorkey Quotes: “I have got to find my identity in God. I have got to stop trying to find my identity in my husband and I need to start looking at my own life and say, “What are areas that I need to grow in?” [24:53] “Turning from focusing on him and the things that he was doing wrong, accepting that it is out of my control to change him and that only the Holy Spirit can do that. And starting to focus on what God wanted to change, in my self, and my relationship and identity in God, is really what made me realize that I can stay and that God can work through me and through Carlos, and He can bring about redemption in our marriage. ” [25:40] “When God says children are a blessing, they really are a blessing.” [28:50] “I think that, pornography is one of the biggest leading causes to affairs.” [33:30] “Be the person you are looking for, for somebody else.” [44:45] “Let's be honest about everything.

Every Man's Battle with Fred Stoeker - 1 of 2 by John Nieder

Every Man's Battle with Fred Stoeker - 2 of 2 by John Nieder

We’re doing something really fun and unique this week, something that we have never done before.  We’re taking a look in the rearview mirror, at some of the shows in the past.  The fifth show that I want to revisit this week is show number 34. It originally aired on June 2016, 2013 on FaithTalk 1360 out of Phx Az. My guest was Fred Stoeker. Fred was the co-author of the Every Man’s Battle Series, and today we’re going to focus on a subject that desperately needs more attention - ministering to the spouse that is impacted by sexual sin. We’re going to do just that by looking at Fred’s classic book, “Every Heart Restored”. On today’s episode of God, Sex and You, we’ll discuss: How much does a husband's sexual sin have to do with his wife?  Can a man heal himself simply by reading scripture?  How important is it for the wife to understand male sexuality? Starting in the middle of March, I’m going to be hosting several online weekly groups for pornography and sex addiction.  I will be teaching out of my new book, “The Sex Spiral: Forgiven and Free From Pornography”   There are four classes to choose from, two on Monday mornings and two on Wed Mornings. Each class is limited to twelve people and because you are a podcast listener, I want to give you a 50% discount on the class. Simply use the coupon code “podcast”. This is the best way to exit the spiral of pornography - and that is to be discipled in Biblical healthy sexuality.  It’s also a great way to ask your personal questions.

Purity Part 2 – Episode #26 In This Episode... The branches continue their discussion from last week. They talk about purity, how it is not legalism, and the heart. The section on resources provides an in depth review on how to use them effectively. 00:50 – Segment 1 Satan deceives us by asking did God really say. Does fast forwarding through the bad parts of shows really work? It comes down to an issue of the heart. Phil Moser and his books on Biblical Strategies use the lie, the truth, and the promise. The lie is I can watch and not be affected or I can just fast forward. John J. demeans Christian entertainment. The branches discuss legalism and how to avoid that in the quest for purity. John J. mentions a podcast that talks about this topic frequently, Theocast It comes down to a matter of conscience. James asks “What is it about this show that is satisfying?” in order to get to the heart issue. This leads to Root sins vs. fruit sins. We talk about the heart in our conversation with Dr. and Mrs. Tedd Tripp which you can find here. 14:33 – Segment 2 Okay, so can we enjoy worldly entertainment? James has another diagnostic question with how much time do you spend in the Word. With this, James sends out a challenge. Email him! We talk about nuts and bolts and mention a number of resources Prayer is a powerful resource. The Idol Babbler gave us a resource by suggesting if we are looking with lust, start to pray for that person. Sexual sin is something everyone deals with. Accountability is an important resource, but trust needs to be there The solution is the gospel.

 Ray Stevens says "The Skies Just Ain't Friendly Anymore"... Jerry Zandstra says he's unraveled "The Genesis Code"...a family friendly movie opening this weekend in Iowa.  Then,  Fred Stoeker and Rev. Mike Demastus highlighting the upcoming "Real Men's Conference."  And an open borders group is buying snotty commercials targeting Congressman Steve King's position on birthright babies.   Then,  for no particular reason...very funny.
