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

Before we get into the live coaching, Sathiya and Shawn discuss singleness and whether the church is doing a good enough job encouraging and talking about singleness, or if marriage has become a bit of an idol. This is a great conversation for all of our single listeners who are wondering how to navigate that while still struggling with addiction to pornography...we got you!

We brought on two amazing listeners who asked questions, and we did our best to give them some live coaching during the episode. Questions include fertility and the consequences of porn use, as well as how to navigate constant and overwhelming urges (even if you don't give into them).

In this episode, we discuss:

1:49 Is there an anti-singleness bias in the church?

5:32 Focusing on your growth

12:35 The one way we've seen lists work when preparing to find a partner

16:53 Marriage is really special to the heart of God

18:55 Make sure you're putting in the work while you've got time for it!

23:43 Question 1: Can eliminating sexual misbehaviour aid in efforts to get pregnant?

35:37 Question 2: No matter what I do, I constantly have urges, and it's causing me to think about relapsing all the time...what do I do?

It's not always easy to talk about money, but guys, we know vulnerability, transparency, and honesty are KEY factors in recovery, so we'll be talking about it more on this podcast, starting with today's episode on: what to do if you don't think you can afford a program or coach to help you recover?

My response might surprise you here, but I urge you to listen to the whole episode, because the bottom line here is not whether you can afford to invest in your recovery...it's whether you can afford NOT to invest in it.

In this episode, we discuss:

1:07 Get a free copy of my book

2:17 What to do if recovery isn't affordable

5:02 You can't afford NOT to recover

7:28 How to decide where to invest and steward wiselyl

8:55 Why it's good thing if it costs a decent amount of money

I had a profound realization recently...God definitely laid something on my heart related to who I am, why I'm here, why DeepClean exists, and even why this podcast exists.

I'm convinced that the world going to crap is directly related to men staying on the sidelines. Whether it's society "forcing" men down, or men opting out of the leadership of their own life, things need to change.

The good news is, the solution is in you. YOU get to be part of the change not only in your own life, but in the world at large. Join me in being part of the change that shifts your life and the trajectory of the world forever.

In this episode, we discuss:

1:00 How to get LIVE coaching from Sathiya and Shawn

3:04 Why have I been called a misogynist on Instagram?!

5:50 Why I exist

7:38 The world goes to crap when the men stay on the sidelines

11:01 You can be part of the change

Let me get a little personal with you guys today...I want to share what God has been (painfully) doing in my life, because I think He's telling me to share it with you in case you can relate.

Not every season is going to be one of growth and spaciousness. Sometimes God trims the fat in our lives. It doesn't mean He's not with us...it just means we need to be extra diligent in keeping the vision! Let me know if you can resonate after listening this episode.

In this episode, we discuss:

0:54 Share this with a friend if you've got value

1:47 What God's been revealing to me in my own life (personal story)

5:51 Trimming the fat in every area of life

9:15 How to handle the fat-trimming seasons
