Show Notes
This week, Jake and Bob reflect on the last episode conversation with Matt Fradd. They discuss the link between shame and compulsion, the addiction cycle and how to truly find healing from sexual sin.
Guiding Quote: "Take heart!" - John 16:33
Key points
- The link between shame and compulsion
- Pornography blurs the lines of fantasy and reality
- A fresh perspective on deeper, long-lasting healing
- Explanation of the addiction cycle
- How our attitude toward our wounds and our sin affects our spiritual lives
- Practical advice about the process and next steps in the healing journey
- The role of grace in the healing process
Practical Application:
- Where have you not experienced love that there might be a shame response?
- Pray about what might be your 'holy desire' (for God, connection, love, etc) behind areas of shame, and what might be your unholy desires?
- Every morning, reflect on your wedding vows and recommit to them.
