As we help more and more guys quit porn, I've changed my mind on what the hardest part about quitting is. I used to think it was consistency and falling off, and having to get back on the horse (which is still extremely difficult, to be sure).

So, let me share with you my new answer to the hardest part of quitting pornography and take what's probably in your subconscious and make it conscious...so you can grow and recover.

We focus a LOT on the negative consequences of porn addiction, and for good reason. The fear of pain is often more motivating than the promise of reward.

Today Sathiya sits down with Pastor Mike Novotny to discuss his work bringing light to taboo subjects, including pornography addiction, and how Mike was freed from his own addiction. It seems like so many Christians have a hard time talking about subjects that are uncomfortable or make us squirm a little, and sadly that's actually one of the reasons why believers still struggle with things like porn addiction...because we don't confess to one another (regularly!). This is a convicting and very practical episode...make sure to pick up Pastor Mike's newest book Taboo (link below)! Pastor Mike Novotny has served God’s people in full-time ministry since 2007 in Madison and, most recently, at The CORE in Appleton, Wisconsin. He also serves as the lead speaker for Time of Grace, where he shares the good news about Jesus through television, print, and online platforms. In this episode, we discuss: 0:00 Introducing Mike Novotny 2:00 Why start talking specifically about taboo subjects? 4:18 Why is porn addiction so prevalent among Christians, even those who regularly go to church? 5:12 How to resist ever-present temptation 8:35 Should we revolt against the word "purity"? 12:27 When God heals you of porn addiction 17:40 Confession for quitting porn 22:32 Why talk about suicide 29:33 How to think about technology and social media 37:42 Tools to combat the enemy 40:44 How to get deeper into the Word of God 44:00 Scriptures to help you defeat sexual sin ✅ FREE "QUIT-PORN" CASE STUDY VIDEO: Learn the system that has helped HUNDREDS of men around the world realize their potential, restore their relationships, and reconnect with God.

Before we get into the live coaching, Sathiya and Shawn discuss singleness and whether the church is doing a good enough job encouraging and talking about singleness, or if marriage has become a bit of an idol.

We brought on two amazing listeners who asked questions, and we did our best to give them some live coaching during the episode. Questions include fertility and the consequences of porn use, as well as how to navigate constant and overwhelming urges (even if you don't give into them).

Internet filters didn't help me in my recovery, so at the beginning of DeepClean I was actually against using them. They can actually be a bit of a crutch and may stop you from going deeper to get true freedom. BUT...I've noticed that they're not always bad. It just depends where you're at in the journey and what kind of help you're getting. In this episode, I'll give you my current, nuanced answer, and hope to clear up any confusion you may have about whether they're actually useful in your own recovery.
