815 - Mike Novotny on Confessing Taboo Topics To Find Lasting Freedom
Today Sathiya sits down with Pastor Mike Novotny to discuss his work bringing light to taboo subjects, including pornography addiction, and how Mike was freed from his own addiction.
It seems like so many Christians have a hard time talking about subjects that are uncomfortable or make us squirm a little, and sadly that's actually one of the reasons why believers still struggle with things like porn addiction...because we don't confess to one another (regularly!).
This is a convicting and very practical episode...make sure to pick up Pastor Mike's newest book Taboo (link below)!
Pastor Mike Novotny has served God’s people in full-time ministry since 2007 in Madison and, most recently, at The CORE in Appleton, Wisconsin. He also serves as the lead speaker for Time of Grace, where he shares the good news about Jesus through television, print, and online platforms.
In this episode, we discuss:
0:00 Introducing Mike Novotny
2:00 Why start talking specifically about taboo subjects?
4:18 Why is porn addiction so prevalent among Christians, even those who regularly go to church?
5:12 How to resist ever-present temptation
8:35 Should we revolt against the word "purity"?
12:27 When God heals you of porn addiction
17:40 Confession for quitting porn
22:32 Why talk about suicide
29:33 How to think about technology and social media
37:42 Tools to combat the enemy
40:44 How to get deeper into the Word of God
44:00 Scriptures to help you defeat sexual sin
