    357 - Healthy Separation
    May 7 2024

    “Separation” is usually a swear word for church folk.

    This is understandable when it’s done wrong. But separation can actually be a healthy tool used for the restoration of a marriage.

    Today, we’re joined by a Pure Desire Clinician, Eileen Fagan, who defines a healthy or “therapeutic” separation and the benefits it can give a struggling couple. We talk through natural hesitations or fears with marital separation, when NOT to separate, and the importance of professional help and support in marital separations.

  • 356 - Reconciling Addiction & Theology

    356 - Reconciling Addiction & Theology
    Apr 30 2024

    When Christians are faced with the word “addiction,” there can be a significant reaction against something we don’t see clearly in Scripture. The word “addiction” doesn’t naturally seem to fit into our theological framework.

    Today, we’re joined by author and speaker, Ben Bennett, to give us a new framework for reconciling addiction and theology. We explore how Scripture speaks directly to addiction, how to integrate psychology and theology, and how the recovery and healing journey can enhance our faith in Jesus.

    355 - Porn & Mental Health
    Apr 23 2024

    The term “mental health” can be fuzzy. Are we talking about anxiety? Depression? Something more? All of the above?

    Ben Bennett joins us today to talk about the connection between viewing pornography and mental health issues. Ben speaks of porn’s role in his personal battle with depression, anxiety, and suicidal ideations and how recovery impacts our mental health, our faith in Jesus, and our ability to follow Him.

Combat Spec Ops Medic!! Saved by His grace!!

vVery excited to listen to the rest of these podcasts. I'm living in South America right now, separated from my family and my true love, my wife. God has been at work on me and in me for many years now. U did not know that there was help out there like this. I truly feel this is an answer to prayer and the start of a very longed for and hopefilled New Beginning. Praise you Lord for the Help and encouragement! i love being a "Narrowgater!"

For men and women who desire to follow God's will.

These guys are doing the good work of God. They are helping others eliminate unwanted behaviors with the end game being, helping others find their purpose for their lives serving God. The podcasts are great snippets of joining a seven pillars or beyond betrayal group.
