081 To Your Health!

077 Comfort and Joy
God rest ye merry gentlemen
Let nothing you dismay
Remember Christ our Savior
Was born on Christmas Day
To save us all from Satan's pow'r
When we were gone astray
Oh tidings of comfort and joy
Comfort and joy
Oh tidings of comfort and joy

Customer Reviews
Inspirational and very heartfelt podcast!
Thanks Ben! Love this podcast! I watched all the brick house series on YouTube and now onto the podcasts! Very good tips to quit porn and make a better life! I first heard about Ben on pornfreeradio (another great podcast!). Thank you so much for your honesty and authenticity and keeping it “light” and having humor in a situation that is a very serious problem that kept me shackled for years. Please continue the podcasts I love them!!! They are inspirational and keep me going one day at a time.
Sincerely,
Cameron (grateful recovering husband)
Great help
A guy who is being real, honest and providing hope!
Fighting the Good Fight

He shares his own story and advice based on both success and relapses. Every episode ends with a recommendation for further study, be it books or websites. You are not alone.
