Is porn really a disease, or is that just what the therapy industry wants you to believe? In this powerful interview, Dr. Greg Gifford challenges the secular psychological model that treats porn addiction like a brain disorder, arguing instead for a biblical view of the heart, sin, and true transformation. From parenting advice to marriage restoration, Dr. Gifford equips you to see through the lies and fight back with truth.

This episode isn’t just about sin, it’s about hope, healing, and seeing the glory of God as better than any counterfeit pleasure.

Not all “Christian” media is created equal—and it’s not just about what’s on screen, but also what’s behind it. In this episode, we dive into the influence of Christian films like The Chosen, The Passion of the Christ, Prince of Egypt, and more. Should we show these to our kids? Can they help or harm our understanding of Jesus? What’s the role of artistic license, and where should we draw the line?

Tony and Bre Wood sits down with Grant and Grace Anna Castleberry to unpack both the blessings and dangers of Christian media. They share personal stories and remind us that no film, no matter how well made, should ever replace Scripture in shaping our view of Christ.

Whether you're a parent, a pastor, or just someone trying to navigate entertainment with discernment, this conversation will help you think biblically and wisely about what you watch—and what you let shape your heart.
