Journal Through Recovery – Bonus Podcast Episode #01

Of all the content we have posted on Castimonia.org, these read journal entries are some of the most powerful.  Please take a few minutes to listen to these.

I am a Christian and a sex addict. This is my Journal through Recovery as it happens. I will expand on my written journals and provide a verbal account of every step of my experience. Join me each episode as I share my thoughts, feelings, and even some learnings as they happen.

As an addict, I am new to intimacy. These episodes are part of my recovery, part of building intimacy, part of sharing my story. I hope you find something in my experience that is of benefit to you in your own journey.

Take what you like and leave the rest.

Discovery is that moment when it all comes out. It happens differently for everyone. Discovery for me was the moment when I had to come face to face with the impact of my deception. It was when I couldn’t manipulate my spouse or hide what I had been doing anymore. This episode is the story of my discovery and how I reached a crossroads on whether to stay in my addiction or move forward into recovery.

https://castimonia.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/podcast30-cliche-episode.mp3

Recovery is known for having a whole host of clichés that are passed around. Many are deep nuggets of wisdom buried inside an easy to remember saying. While some may seem trivial, they often have a deep truth to be explored.

Jorge and Doug discuss many of the clichés found in recovery. Most have roots in AA, but some are specific to those in Sex Addiction recovery.

Let us know if any of these clichés help you at puritypodcast@castimonia.org.

Jorge and Doug discuss the upcoming Thanksgiving holiday in terms of recovery. Family and friends are not always easy to be around, but especially when dealing with recovery issues.

They discuss travel plans as well as ways to handle in-laws. They also discuss the dangers of being alone, and they talk about some strategies to put in place if you are.

Thanksgiving is a great time to serve your community, so look for ways to bless others. Also, journal all of the things you are personally thankful for. God is blessing you, so look and see how!

Castimonia Purity Podcast Episode 28a: Mike and Sex Addiction – Testimony and Interview (Part A)

https://castimonia.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/podcast28a-mikes-testimony.mp3

Mike takes us through his life’s story that walks us through his addiction story. His honest approach to the dark days in his past show the power that Satan can have over us. 

He talks about his youth as well as the slippery slope of his addiction. His progression into bondage of sexual sin is one that highlights the broken thinking and false beliefs that we tell ourselves.

Listen for how his story is like your story…we all have brokenness and areas that God can mend. It is about turning all of us over to Him.  Listen to part B about the hope and freedom that Mike found in his spirtual program of recovery.

Our testimonies now will follow a part A and part B format to highlight the brokeness of the addiction, but we will utilize a part B to give ample time to the message of hope and freedom.
