Podcasts about Purity

Omega-3 deficiencies are cutting years off lifespans and driving inflammation and chronic disease. The solution lies in high-quality marine sources, proper purity testing, and consistent supplementation. In this episode, I speak with Oliver Amdrup-Chamby, co-founder of Puori, about what makes Omega-3 effective, why deficiencies persist even in fish-eaters, and how poor-quality creatine often contains contaminants.  He explains the importance of EPA and DHA ratios, how oxidation affects potency, and why plant sources often fall short. We also expose the risks of gummies and why full transparency in supplement testing matters.   "I would be a very happy man if I had a dollar every time someone said, 'fish oil is fish oil, isn't it?'" ~ Oliver Amdrup-Chamby   In This Episode: - Why are Omega-3s essential? How much, and the best sources - Vegan challenges with Omega-3 and DHA conversion - How to measure fish oil quality - Why fish oils go rancid and how to spot it - Heavy metals and toxins in fish oil - Capsules vs liquid: which is better and safer? - QR code transparency and third-party testing - Benefits of creatine: muscle, brain, longevity, menopause - Is synthetic creatine good?

Today's message focused on the metaphor of marriage as a garden, specifically on the importance of “watering” it with our words, as described in Ephesians 5:25-29. We explored what it means for husbands to “wash” their wives with the water of the word—not just through Bible study, but through the daily spoken words that affirm, cleanse, and sanctify. Drawing from Genesis and the Song of Solomon, we saw how words have the power to shape reality, heal wounds from the curse, and create a world of grace in marriage. The sermon challenged husbands to use their words to affirm and accentuate their wives, rather than focusing on faults, and to be intentional in building up rather than tearing down. For those who are single or whose spouse is absent, the message pointed to the ultimate Shepherd King—Jesus—who speaks love and affirmation over us, making us secure in His love.

Join Aaron Hood and special guest Zac Waller as they ask the question “What does atonement look like in practice”. Zac unpacks Mark 5 where we see the unclean being made clean by a transformative work of faith and humility accompanied by verbal confession of fault. As Yeshua says justification came for the tax collector that beat his chest and said “ have mercy on me a sinner “ and the one who kept the law was caught in his pride. Confession isn't just admission—it's a commanded, transformative act that completes repentance. In this episode, we explore the Hebrew root yadah, unpack scriptural examples from Leviticus to 1 John, and discuss why verbal confession is key to healing, forgiveness, and restoration. Learn how to bring hidden sin into the light and lean on the Head of the offering. Take the challenge to “confess your faults one to another” and experience the healing.

Ryan wrestles with a piercing question sparked by Charlie Kirk's testimony: Are we actually called to purity—or is purity the assumed condition of a life on mission for Christ? Drawing from Kirk's own words about victory over pornography and Psalm 97:10, Ryan reframes purity not as an end in itself but as the necessary overflow of loving Jesus and pursuing His calling with focus.Topics DiscussedPurity vs. purpose: which is the calling and which is the conditionLessons from Charlie Kirk's testimony and focusThe danger of letting the “fight for purity” become a lifelong distractionPractical safeguards (accountability, tech tools) in their proper placePsalm 97:10 and hating evil as an expression of loving GodMoving from abstinence-mindset to satisfaction in ChristSimultaneously growing in purity while stepping into God's missionKey TakeawaysPurity is not the destination; it's the runway for a Spirit-led life on mission.A life that can “comfortably accommodate” impurity is misaligned with calling.Tools and accountability help, but transformation flows from loving Christ first.Get on mission now; don't postpone obedience until you feel “fully pure.”As love for Christ increases, purity increases—because there's more of you reserved for Him.Resources & LinksCharlie Kirk's original interview: ListenCovenant Eyes — accountability software for purityReady to download the Cord App?

Today on Bridging the Gap, pastor Lloyd Pulley will draw out some important lessons from the story of Ananias and his wife Sapphira. In Acts chapter five, Ananias And Sapphira sell some property just to get some accolades. What they receive is the judgment of God. It makes us wonder if they were really Christians at all. 

In this week's message Aaron Ninaber preached on what it means to be a House of Purity—holding both holiness and grace together. Purity isn't perfection or ignoring sin; it's walking in the Spirit, turning quickly back to Jesus when we stumble, and letting His love make us new.More from Catch The Fire RaleighMessages: https://ctfr.me/messagesMusic: https://ctfr.me/musicWorship Moments: https://ctfr.me/worshipConnect with us:Website: https://ctfraleigh.comFacebook: https://facebook.com/ctfraleighInstagram: https://instagram.com/catchthefireraleighSpotify: https://ctfr.me/spotifyApple Music: https://ctfr.me/applemusicThank you for watching this video from Catch The Fire Raleigh.

The Daily Philip is a devotion of prayer to the Patron Saint of Joy, St. Philip Neri, led by Fr. Malone, parochial vicar of Christ the Redeemer Parish in Swift Current. This devotion has four parts: (1) a daily prayer for a particular virtue, based on the day of the week, to which Pope Pius IX has attached an indulgence (dated May 17, 1852,); (2) a reading from The Life of St. Philip Neri, Apostle of Rome; (3) a quote from The Maxims and Counsels of St. Philip Neri; and (4) the daily prayer for a good death.    For Tuesday Prayer to obtain the virtue of Purity. St. Philip, who didst always preserve the white lily of thy purity unsullied, with such great honour to thyself that the brightness of this fair virtue dwelt in thine eyes, shone forth from thy hands, and cast its fragrance over thy whole body, causing it to emit so sweet a perfume that it gave consolation, fervour, and devotion to all who conversed with thee; obtain me from the Holy Spirit of God so true a love for that virtue, that neither the words nor bad examples of sinners may ever make any impression upon my soul.  Never permit me in any way to lose that lovely virtue; and since avoidance of occasions, prayer, labour, humility, frequent use of the Sacraments, were the arms with which thou didst conquer the flesh, which is our worst enemy, so do thou obtain for me grace to use the same arms to vanquish the same foe.  Take not away thy help from me; but be as zealous for me as thou wast during thy life for thy penitents, keeping them far removed from all sensual infection.  Do this for me, my holy Patron; and be ever my protector in respect of this fair virtue. Our Father…, Hail Mary…, Glory Be…   Prayer to be said daily, for a good death. O glorious Saint Philip, faithful helper of thy dying children, be thou my father and protector in the hour of my death. Let not the devil overcome me; let not temptation oppress me, nor fear overwhelm me in that hour; but grant through thy intercession that, fortified by faith, hope, and charity, I may bear all things with patience and perseverance, and may happily die the death of the just. Amen.

September 28th, 2025 | Fortify | Genesis 2; Proverbs 5-7In this candid and powerful message, Pastor Matt Darby tackles one of the most sensitive and misunderstood topics in our culture: sexual intimacy. As part of the Fortify series, we return to Genesis 2 to build a clear theological framework around God's design for sex — its parameters, its place, and its purposes.With honesty, clarity, and biblical wisdom, Pastor Matt walks through Proverbs 5–7, offering insight into how sexual sin seduces and destroys — and how God's Word gives us the tools to pursue purity, wisdom, and true freedom. Whether you're married, single, dating, or struggling, this message is a grace-filled call to live God's way in this deeply personal area of life.Topics Include:The blessing and boundaries of sexual intimacyWhy sex outside of marriage is spiritually and emotionally destructiveHow to flee temptation instead of flirting with itCultivating a healthy sex life in marriageHow Scripture anchors us in purity and freedomA call to confession, forgiveness, and healingWhether you're seeking restoration or simply want to walk in wisdom, this episode is a vital conversation for every generation.Do you know JESUS? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbgilmer.org/do-you-know-jesus⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Need PRAYER? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbgilmer.org/pray⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support through GIVING: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbbctx.org/giving⁠

This week on the podcast, Pastor Tom continues our journey through James 3, building on Pastor Danny's message about the contrast between heavenly wisdom and earthly wisdom. While false wisdom is insidious and ever-present, Pastor Tom reminds us that the best way to recognize what's counterfeit is to study the real thing. God's wisdom is “first pure”—rooted in integrity, wholehearted devotion, and a reflection of His holiness. Purity is not perfection, but a lifelong pursuit empowered by Christ. Join us as we discover how true wisdom shapes our hearts, our choices, and our witness in a world full of counterfeits.

When we see Jesus for who He is, rather than who we want Him to be, we realize the truth that denying ourselves and picking up our crosses is good news.Mark 8:27-37Reverend Matt LakeSeptember 28, 2025

Pastor Thomas continues our series by exploring how Christians can move from mourning to comfort through conviction, contrition, and confession.

Purity culture can often shape our sexuality in ways we don't even realize. Whether you grew up deeply immersed in it or just caught the edges, cultural messages about sexual "purity" impact how we view ourselves, our bodies, and our relationships. But what happens when we start questioning these teachings? How do we reclaim our sexuality and pleasure after being told our bodies belong to someone else?Lauren Elise Rogers joins us to share her powerful journey from purity culture survivor to certified holistic sexuality educator. Her story of transformation—from wearing a purity ring and teaching "Ladies in Waiting" Bible studies to becoming an embodied intimacy coach—shows us that liberation is possible, even after deep indoctrination.In this episode, we talk about:— What purity culture actually is and how it manifests— The subtle ways purity culture shows up even for those who weren't raised in religious households— Lauren's personal experience with purity culture, including her first marriage to a man who later came out as gay— How pleasure became the pathway to Lauren's deconstruction and healing— The challenges of exploring sexuality after leaving purity culture behind— The resurgence of purity culture concepts in modern movements like "trad wife" culture and certain wellness spaces— A powerful exercise for examining your own beliefs about sex, relationships, and pleasure— How questioning our inherited beliefs about sexuality can lead to greater authenticity and joyResources mentioned in this episode:— Lauren's website— The documentary Give Me Sex, Jesus— Mary Magdalene Revealed by Meggan Watterson— The Ethical Slut by Dossie Easton and Catherine A.

Send me a Text Message!So let me ask you, when it comes to purity, what images come to your mind? What images, what thoughts, what emotions come to mind and heart when I say that we are diving again into purity?  There is a call to purity woven throughout scripture. It's all over the place. Let me tell you upfront. The primary issue of purity is where am i seeking life? If I primarily seek life in my job, or in friends, or in the adrenaline rush of adventure, or in my marriage, or in the weekend, or in success, or in accumulating all the stuff my hands can hold, sooner or later my quest will lead to an impure heart. Where am I seeking life?

Everywhere you turn, the world tries to sell men on shortcuts, secrets, and compromises. Purity and integrity aren't celebrated much anymore—yet they're the very foundation of a godly man's strength. What you choose in private shapes who you are in public. The hidden battles you fight—what you watch, what you think about, what you dwell on—will eventually spill out into your words, your actions, and your leadership. Today, we're looking at why purity and integrity matter, and how they set you apart as a man after God's heart.Our springboard for today's discussion is:“How can a young man keep his way pure? By guarding it according to your word.” — Psalm 119:9 (ESV)Purity begins in the heart. It's not just about avoiding obvious sins—it's about aligning every thought, every desire, and every action with God's Word. David understood that the only way to keep his heart pure was by anchoring it in Scripture. And that truth hasn't changed.Integrity means wholeness. It means the man people see in public is the same man God sees in private. No masks. No double lives. A man of integrity doesn't cut corners at work, doesn't bend truth to make himself look better, and doesn't indulge in sin when he thinks nobody's watching.The culture says, “Do whatever feels good—as long as you don't get caught.” God says, “Be holy, for I am holy.” The culture celebrates secrecy. God celebrates transparency.Brother, purity and integrity are not about perfection—they're about direction. Every time you choose God's way, even when it's harder, you're proving that His Spirit is stronger in you than the temptations around you. You're showing your wife, your children, and your brothers in Christ what it looks like to live with honor.And here's the truth—purity and integrity don't just protect you. They protect your family. When you live clean before God, you build a legacy of trust that strengthens every relationship around you.Question of the Day:Where are you tempted to compromise in your life right now, and how is God calling you back to integrity?Mini Call to Action:Memorize Psalm 119:9 this week. Use it as a weapon when temptation comes—speak it out loud and let God's Word guard your heart.Prayer:Lord, give me the strength to walk in purity when temptation surrounds me. Keep my heart clean, my mind focused, and my actions aligned with Your Word. Make me a man of integrity—faithful in public and private.Let's Get To Work!Purity builds power. Integrity builds influence. When you guard your heart, you're not just protecting yourself—you're protecting everyone God has entrusted to you.Thanks for reading My Reasons To Believe!

Deuteronomy 22 is rich with detailed instructions that, at first glance, may seem far removed from our daily lives. Yet every commandment in this chapter shows the heart of a God who cares about how His people live together in community. Moses addressed a generation preparing to enter the Promised Land. These were people who had spent centuries in Egypt and many years wandering in the wilderness, exposed to pagan practices and other cultures. They needed clear direction on how to establish a society that honored the Lord. This chapter ranges from very practical matters, such as caring for a neighbor's livestock or building a safe house, to deeply personal matters of purity, marriage, and sexual morality. In every case God's purpose is evident. His people are to live in holiness, protect and respect one another, and show compassion to all creation. Verse 4 captures this heart of neighborly responsibility, calling us to help those around us and to care for what belongs to others. “Thou shalt not see thy brother's ass or his ox fall down by the way, and hide thyself from them: thou shalt surely help him to lift them up again” (Deuteronomy 22:4). Though we now live on this side of the cross and are not bound by the ceremonial law, the principles behind these instructions still guide us. God desires that we be good neighbors, value purity and honesty, and treat every part of His creation with care and respect. Deuteronomy 22 reminds us that God's law is not just about rules; it is about love for Him and love for others. Did you enjoy this podcast? Post a review and share it!

Welcome back to the Dare to Be True Series on Stay True Podcast! This week, Madi sits down with her favorite people and BFFs Angela Halili and Arielle Reitsma from Girls Gone Bible! Madi, Ari, and Ang uncover a powerful conversation about purity, modesty, and what it really means to live set apart in today's culture.

This is your reminder that purity is possible, modesty is beautiful, and holiness leads to life. Remember to always stay you and stay true! Questions/topics discussed and answered: • What purity actually means and why it's more than just “don't have sex” • How modesty is about the heart, not just clothing • How do you recover from past mistakes without letting shame take over? • Why holiness is freedom and not restriction • How do you guard your heart and mind when temptation is everywhere?

Robin on how pornography defined US morality. Guest: Judith Giesberg, author of Sex and the Civil War.

Theological error, idolatry, and sin are serious matters that cannot be ignored because they are a constant threat to the unity of God's people. In this passage, we see the necessity of pursuing the peace and purity of the church.Sermon Outline:I. Because the LORD is God, We Must Cling to Him in Wholehearted DevotionII. Because the LORD is God, We Must Pursue the Purity of the ChurchIII. Because the LORD is God, We Must Pursue the Peace of the ChurchSermon Discussion Questions:1. The word “cling” used in Joshua's instructions is the same word used to describe how a husband and wife should hold fast to each other in marriage. What does it look like practically to “cling to God with loyalty, faithfulness, and affection” in the midst of busy daily life? What threatens to pull your affection away from Him?2. The altar built by the eastern tribes was misunderstood as rebellion. Can you recall a time when you misjudged someone's motives (or were misjudged yourself)? What would it look like for you to be slower to assume and quicker to ask questions in those situations?3. The western tribes feared the altar represented idolatry because sin spreads and affects the whole community. In what ways have you seen sin (whether your own or others') impact your family, church, or community? What does “guarding the purity of the church” look like in practice?4. When the misunderstanding was cleared, Israel rejoiced that “the LORD is in our midst” (v. 31). How does pursuing peace with one another help us experience and display God's presence today?5. How does this central confession that “The LORD is God” give us unity as believers even when we disagree about lesser matters? How could remembering this confession change the way you approach conflict?

Send us a textIn the second half of Jesus' conversation about what defiles, he explains that defilement isn't about your hands but your heart. We must focus on purity in the right place. (Text: Mark 7.14-23)

In this episode, we dive deep into 1 Timothy 2:8, where Paul makes a pointed and passionate plea: “I desire therefore that the men pray everywhere, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting.” Why does Paul specifically call out men? Because the reality is—many men struggle with consistent, fervent prayer. Prayer is often seen as passive or unproductive, yet Jesus Himself taught that men ought always to pray and not lose heart (Luke 18:1). In this teaching, we'll explore:

In this episode, I discuss how the feminist magazine Jezebel paid Etsy witches to curse Charlie Kirk, and use this to get into a larger issue in the witchcraft and pagan community at large right now - the idea that it is ethical to curse someone for a difference of opinion. The quest for "political purity" within left wing woke witchcraft communities is something we should all be denouncing. Witches are too concerned with aggressively wielding power against those they don't like, and need to take some time and space to ground ourselves in ethics and true morals, and remember what witchcraft is really about - healing ourselves and living a good life. Witchcraft is not about cursing people we disagree with, period. -Secrets of a Witch is a podcast by writer, artist, and spiritual teacher Sabrina Scott. She's been a practicing witch and medium for more than 25 years, and in this casual, mellow show she shares her secrets and musings about how to overcome pain and live a happy, magical life.

Many of us men don’t understand how to relate to our addiction with compassion. We get sober by suppressing the “addict parts” of our mind, without realizing the roots of our behaviors and what those parts were trying to do for us. We sit on top of them, try to control ourselves, and force our […] The post Castimonia Purity Podcast Episode 126 – Jake Kastleman Interview appeared first on CASTIMONIA.

In a world where wickedness thrives when justice is forgotten, this podcast is a call to action for believers who are called to uphold a divine standard: justice as God defines it. Drawing deeply from Scripture, each episode explores the timeless and powerful truth that God is a God of justice—one who defends the fatherless, upholds the oppressed, and judges with righteousness. Through real-life scenarios, biblical exposition, and the foundational Hebrew concept of מִשְׁפָּט (mishpat), we unpack how justice is more than a legal term—it is a holy virtue. We'll explore how justice intersects with mercy, judgment with grace, and how believers can discern between righteous accountability and wrongful condemnation. Join Aaron as he brings out Justice as an attribute of God and how we are to promote His Justice on earth. From Moses to the prophets, from Christ to the apostles, this podcast is a journey through Scripture that challenges listeners to seek justice, love mercy, and walk humbly with God. Because without justice, there is no peace—and without righteousness, there is no justice. “Let justice roll down like waters, and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream.” — Amos 5:24  

In this episode of Step Up, Pastor Chris and Host Josh Thomas tackle one of the most overlooked yet destructive areas of a man's life—sexual sin. From pornography to infidelity, they uncover the myths men believe: “It's not that big of a deal,” “I can stop anytime,” and “I'll never change.”Through scripture, raw honesty, and practical wisdom, they show how sexual compromise doesn't just stay hidden—it bleeds into money, pride, relationships, and legacy. More importantly, they point to the hope and freedom found in Christ, reminding men that purity is possible and powerful.If you've ever felt trapped, this conversation will equip you with tools to fight temptation, honor women, and build the kind of legacy your family can stand on for generations.To find out more about Pastor Chris, follow him on all the social platforms (@ckouba) and to connect with the ministry of United City visit https://unitedcity.church.  Show NotesFollow on Instagram: @stepup.podcastFollow United City: @untdcitychurchConnect with Pastor Chris: http://chriskouba.comMore About United City: https://unitedcity.church/Covenant Eyes: https://www.covenanteyes.com/Accountable2You: https://accountable2you.com/VidAngel: https://www.vidangel.com/Celebrate Recovery: https://celebraterecovery.com/

Is unity in the church still possible when everyone is so divided? At the Legacy Conference in Chicago, Beth Moore joins Esau, Kaitlyn, and Skye to wrestle with what it means to remain in community with believers we deeply disagree with.
