    The Hidden Needs Pornography Is Trying to Fill

    You don't just randomly watch porn. There were silent triggers you never noticed — and they started with unmet needs you didn't even know you had. In this episode, we unpack three of the five God-designed needs that pornography quietly hijacks: connection, belonging, and purpose. If you've ever wondered why willpower alone never seems to work, this is where the real answers start. Buy Turn Off Porn on Amazon https://a.co/d/0dz0ZlS7

    Why Praying Harder Isn't Fixing Your Porn Addiction | Turn Off Porn

    Pornography isn't a declaration of who you are — it's a symptom of what's missing. In this first episode of a special series, licensed counselor and author of "Turn Off Porn, Brian Bachman explores why the church's go-to advice — pray more, read more, try harder — hasn't been working for most people. He unpacks how 200 years of cultural shifts have left us disconnected from purpose, community, and the rhythms God designed us for, creating the exact conditions where addiction thrives. This isn't shame. This is honesty. And it's where real recovery starts.

    32 True Self vs False Self, Which One is Living Louder? with Brett Vaden

    Today I have a conversation with Brett Vaden, an author and associate pastor at The Journey West County. We explore what it means to have a true self and a false self and why it’s important.
