Trigger warning and PSA: In this episode we discuss a lot of hard topics that may be triggering for some. This conversation is not meant for little ears. 


Today on the show, I am joined by Ashley Jameson, Associate Director of Women’s Groups for Pure Desire to discuss the new study that revealed 40% of Christian women use pornography.


We talk about Ashley’s personal experience with addiction and betrayal trauma, God’s truth and power through sin and shame, why this conversation matters, resources, the science behind addiction, that you CAN find freedom and how to do that, and encouragement for those impacted by betrayal trauma.
