Today, we sit down with Nick Stumbo, a former pastor and the Executive Director of Pure Desire, to dive into a complex subject: pornography addiction. With sexually explicit material more accessible than ever, men and women across the world find themselves impacted by ongoing exposure to it. How does pornography influence our culture as a whole? How can we break free from this cycle of addiction? Join us now to see for yourself…  Nick was a third-generation pastor who began his ministry work at the East Hills Alliance Church in Kelso, Washington, where he served as head pastor for more than 10 years. During this time, Nick closely observed the sexual brokenness and devastation in the congregation. Instead of meeting this with judgment, he recognized the need for grace in the Church like never before. Nick found hope and healing on his own journey with pornography addiction through the transformative resources provided at Pure Desire. This radical change not only led to his personal healing but also sparked a revival of forgiveness and healing among his loved ones. Later, Nick launched his own Pure Desire groups for men and women – staying connected to Christ's path all along the way. He also authored two books, Setting Us Free and Safe. Click play to discover:  Why male and female porn consumption is so different.  The elements that make pornography so addictive.   How Pure Desire is leading the charge toward healing and sustainable change.

In this episode of The Daniele Hage Podcast, Daniele is joined by Sathiya Sam, an expert in helping men overcome pornography addiction. Sathiya shares his personal journey, beginning with his exposure to pornography at a young age, and how it developed into a serious addiction during his university years. He reveals how his recovery involved not only stopping the behavior but addressing the deeper emotional and psychological issues, such as trauma, emotional awareness, and identity.   The conversation delves into the impact pornography has on relationships, particularly how it can distort intimacy and how many men, even in marriage, find that it doesn't solve their struggles with addiction. Sathiya and Daniele explore whether pornography can ever be beneficial in long-term relationships and why it may initially enhance sexual satisfaction but erode it over time.   Sathiya emphasizes that recovery is possible for anyone, regardless of the depth of their addiction. He shares details about his system and tools that have helped thousands of men achieve lasting freedom. Daniele and Sathiya's open dialogue provides hope and guidance for anyone facing the shame and secrecy surrounding pornography addiction.
