She spent fifteen years in church ministry before she ever sat in a counseling chair. She knows both rooms. We get honest about what the research actually shows. What porn does to the brain.

Jason VanRuler: How to Say the Hard Thing, Ep. 57 07.09.2026 42минJason VanRuler is a psychotherapist, author, and speaker specializing in communication, attachment, and relationships. He joins Joshua to walk through his new book on the five communication types, why the same words land differently depending on who is hearing them, and how knowing your type changes every conversation that matters. Then the conversation turns to confession. What it actually requires, how to say it without excusing it, and how to receive it when someone trusts you with the tru... -
Porn in Church - The Confession Your Church Cannot Hear, Ep. 56 31.08.2026 29минA man stands up and says he is six months sober from alcohol. The room applauds. A man stands up and says he is six months free from pornography. The room goes silent. Same courage. Same repentance. Different response. Joshua examines why the church created a category of sin that cannot be confessed out loud, what that silence costs the people sitting in the pews, and how leaders can build a culture where sexual sin gets brought into the light instead of buried in it. Subscribe now so you d... -
Albaner C. Eugene Jr: Momentum, Ep. 55 24.08.2026 55минMost of us are not stuck because God is silent. We are stuck because we keep taking the wheel. Albaner C. Eugene Jr. is a licensed therapist, ordained minister, and author of the 100-day devotional Momentum. He joins Joshua to talk about moving forward through pain instead of around it, why self-effort stalls out where surrender builds momentum, and what changes when you stop managing your healing and let the Holy Spirit lead it. Pain is not the end of your progress. It is often the beginning... -
The Lie of “It’s Just a Fantasy” , Ep. 54 17.08.2026 40минIt’s just a thought. Nobody’s getting hurt. It’s the lie the enemy has been whispering to Christians forever, and in the age of the smartphone, he’s turned the whisper into a broadcast. But what if the fantasy life isn’t the safe outlet you’ve been told it is? What if it’s actually the training ground for the life you’d never say you wanted? This episode opens the Bible to answer one question. What does Scripture really say about the imagination? Because what you rehearse in your mind, you ev... -
David Marvin: God Is Still Good, Ep. 53 10.08.2026 49минThis episode is about wanting something God has not given you. For some people that is a marriage that has not come. For David and me it is a loss we have both carried. Different griefs, same question underneath. We talk about the expectations we hand God without ever saying them out loud, and what happens to your faith when he does not do the thing you begged him for. Singleness is not a waiting room and grief is not a detour. Subscribe now so you don’t miss future episodes, and join us as... -
Garrett Unclebach: God Has a Great Plan for Your Life, Ep. 52 03.08.2026 43минYou have heard that line your whole life. Most of us have no idea what to do with it. Garrett Unclebach learned to suffer well in the SEAL teams, but the lesson he carried out was not about toughness. The only way you go beyond yourself is by serving something more important than you are. Purpose is not something you invent. Identity is not something you earn. Discipline is not something that saves you. God does have a plan. Subscribe now so you don’t miss future episodes, and join us as we... -
Lee Shelton: How Pornography Became Normalized - Church History, Alfred Kinsey, and the Fight for a Biblical Sexual Ethic, Ep. 51 27.07.2026 48минI sit down with my longtime friend Lee Shelton, creator of the documentary Unmentionable, to unpack the chronological history of pornography and how it became as widespread, normalized, and accessible as it is today. Drawing from Lee’s research, conversations with church historians, and insights from historical experts, we look at how the Church has understood and defended a biblical sexual ethic throughout history. We also discuss what sexual morality looked like in ancient port cities lik... -
Lee Shelton: Redeemed for a Purpose - From Brokenness to Advocacy, Ep. 50 20.07.2026 1ч 16минIn this special episode of Walk Worthy, I sit down with my longtime friend Lee Shelton, creator of the Unmentionable documentary series, for a personal and honest conversation about my story, my childhood, and the ways God has redeemed what was once broken. We talk about what it was like growing up in the town I came from, how early wounds and unmet needs shaped some of the decisions I made, and how the grace of God met me in the middle of a life I never could have fixed on my own. This con... -
Your Desire Isn’t the Problem. Its Aim Is. Ep. 49 13.07.2026 27минDisordered. It sounds like an insult. It is actually one of the most hopeful words in the Christian life. Your desire is not the enemy. God gave it to you. The problem was never that you want. The problem is that your wanting got aimed at the wrong thing. In this episode, Joshua Broome takes on the question people are too nervous to ask out loud. Is reading romance novels really any different than looking at pornography? The honest answer is uncomfortable. They are not identical, but the pla... -
If God Is a Vending Machine, So Is Everyone Else, Ep. 48 06.07.2026 49минMost of us are praying to a god we have never actually examined. Put in good behavior, expect good outcomes. Stay clean, expect the blessing. Mess up, and brace for the bill. We would never say it out loud, but a lot of us treat God like a vending machine. In this episode, Joshua Broome traces what that one belief quietly does to everything else. A transactional view of God does not stay in your prayer life. It turns friendship into scorekeeping, dating into building credit you expect ... -
Kyle Thompson: Jesus Is Both the Lion and the Lamb, Ep. 47 29.06.2026 1ч 18минKyle Thompson built Undaunted.Life on one conviction: a man doesn’t have to choose between godly and manly. He read the Gospels and met a Jesus who is both the Lion of Judah and the Lamb of God, perfect Truth and perfect grace. Joshua sits down with Kyle to hold those two together: the lie that splits strength from tenderness, what it means to push back darkness when you are the darkness in your own house, and how to call sin what it is without crushing the man who already knows. Two men, op... -
The Mental Health Battle Nobody Saw, Ep. 46 22.06.2026 38минFrom the outside my life looked like a win. On the inside I was running on empty. For years I fought a battle with my mental health that nobody around me could see. I had everything I was supposed to want, and I woke up emptier every morning. I learned how to perform being okay while quietly falling apart. In this episode I tell the whole story. How the heaviness crept in slowly until it felt normal. The lies that kept me hidden. The one person who refused to flinch when I final... -
You Can Lust After Your Wife, Ep. 45 15.06.2026 40минThis message reached more than 500,000 people in its first twelve hours online. Now the full episode is here. Most men are taught that marriage resolves the struggle with lust. Scripture tells a more honest story. Drawing on Matthew 5, the tenth commandment, and 1 Thessalonians 4, Joshua Broome examines how a husband can desire the right person in the wrong way, why a wedding changes who we are permitted to love but not what the heart does with her, and what intimacy was designed to be from ... -
Nick Stumbo: Healing, Confession & Digital Infidelity, Ep. 44 08.06.2026 49мин75% of Christian men and 40% of Christian women view pornography. 67% of pastors carry a personal history with it. So why does the Church still feel like the least safe place to confess? Joshua Broome sits down with Nick Stumbo, Executive Director of Pure Desire Ministries and author of Setting Us Free and Safe. A third-generation pastor whose own marriage was on the brink, Nick unpacks what holistic healing looks like, how churches become safe spaces for confession, and the real impact of di... -
Shane Pruitt: Reaching Gen Alpha for Christ, Ep. 43 01.06.2026 1ч 16минHow does the Church reach the most digitally native, least-churched generation in American history? Joshua Broome sits down with Shane Pruitt, National Next Gen Director for the North American Mission Board (NAMB) and author of 9 Common Lies Christians Believe and Calling Out the Called. Speaking to over 100,000 students and young adults a year, Shane shares what’s actually working in next gen evangelism, why he calls them the “Revival Generation,” and what pastors, parents, and ministry lead... -
Is Masturbation a Sin? Joshua Broome on What the Bible Does And Doesn’t Say, Ep. 42 25.05.2026 30минIs masturbation a sin? Most Christians have never heard this question answered carefully from Scripture. In this 30-minute teaching, Joshua Broome opens the Bible to ask what God actually says about sexual integrity, lust, and the body. Anchored in 1 Corinthians 7 and Matthew 5:28, with six biblical tests for any behavior Scripture doesn’t name directly, this episode draws from the Theology of the Body Institute, John Piper, Tim Challies, two thousand years of church history, and modern neuro... -
Joshua Broome on Theo Von's 'Theology of Healing', Ep. 41 18.05.2026 37минTheo Von said the quiet part out loud. Reading the story of Jesus at the Pool of Bethesda, he admitted that if he got healed, he’d be different. He’d have a new story. And sometimes the honest answer to “do you want to be healed” is no. That’s a question worth sitting with. In this episode, I unpack what Jesus was actually asking the man at Bethesda, and why healing always costs us the identity we built around the wound. I share some of what Hope and I have walked through together, and th... -
Doug Elks: Knowing Who You’re Called to Be, Ep. 40 11.05.2026 36минIn this conversation, we talk about the road from athlete to evangelist, what it actually means to be equipped for the call rather than just inspired by it, and why identity in Christ is the foundation every kingdom assignment is built on. There is something powerful about a man who knows who he is and what he’s been called to do — and Doug carries that with conviction. If you’ve ever wondered whether your past prepares you for what God has next, this one is for you. Subscribe now so you d... -
Rachelle Starr: She Brings the Gospel Into Strip Clubs, Ep. 39 04.05.2026 1ч 3минMost people drive past the darkest places in their city and look away. Rachelle Starr walked in. As the Founder and President of Scarlet Hope, Rachelle has spent nearly two decades bringing home-cooked meals — and the hope of Jesus — to women in the adult entertainment industry across 11 cities nationwide. In this conversation with Joshua Broome, she shares what outrageous obedience actually costs, what redemption looks like up close, and why the people the church sometimes overlooks are the ...
