Castimonia Purity Podcast Episode 14: John’s Testimony – Overcoming Sex Addiction

https://castimonia.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/podcast14-johns-testimony.mp3

John shares his life’s story in an honest and open way to help us see patterns in his life that we might identify with.

He discusses his early exposure to life situations that were too mature for him and how that confuses his view of “reality.”

We see the use of secondary addictions creep in as he tries to compensate for feelings and guilt. He also discusses how he found hope, and how that new life style has given him a fresh outlook on life.

Our hope is that his story of God’s redeeming love is an example of the power that God can work in all of our lives. If you are struggling and need help, you are not alone and it is not too late!

He discusses in this episode the misconceptions about polygraphs, and the true reason that addicts want to come and be tested. He seeks to share his insights about addiction from working with addicts as well as shares his belief about the power of truth.

Addiction isn’t possible without lies, and recovery isn’t possible without truth…  Cabler works to help each man pass polygraphs because they are living in the light of truth.

Castimonia Purity Podcast Episode 12: The Power of Lies – Learning to Tell the Truth and Nothing but the Truth

https://castimonia.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/podcast12-power-of-lies.mp3

How do you know when an addict is lying? …. When his lips are moving!

See why there is no addiction without lying, and how there is no recovery with truth.

Jorge and Doug highlight the reasons that addicts use lies and how they originate in us as children. Once we are aware of this issue, we can intentionally choose truth.

They discuss the power that truth has as well as the freedom from not looking over our shoulders or remembering what lie we might have told.
