When a Christian man looks at porn, in that moment, he has this false idea that no one will ever know ... that he's all alone ... that it's private ... he believes it's his little secret ... but that's not reality. Somebody is watching. Somebody is always watching. Somebody is right there with you the entire time ... and that somebody is God. God is present the entire time and God sees everything that you think, look at, and do. The Bible teaches that God is omnipresent and omniscient. That means He's everywhere and knows everything. There's nowhere you can go to hide from God's eyes or God's presence. You need to understand this and deeply meditate upon this biblical fact.

Don't be a pig!

Christian men end up in the pigpen because they choose to do their own thing rather than follow God's clear commands. We have to see past the temporary pleasure of sin to what lies on the other side of it (the painful nasty pigpen). See Luke 15:11-32.

Be careful when life is good my brothers!

The danger of comfort, ease, riches, health, "good times" is that we easily forget God and forsake His commandments. We must constantly guard against this. There will be painful consequences if we don't.

Deuteronomy chapter 8 warns of this.

I offer some practical steps that I take to prevent falling into this.

As Christian men, we know it’s wrong to look at porn. That’s really not our struggle. The real struggle we face is staying motivated to stay the heck away from it. Sexual temptation is everywhere! It’s insane! I know you know what I’m talking about … even social media like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, SnapChat, etc. … all of those can be major triggers for lust. You just never know what’s going to pop-up.

The temptation to lust pulls at all of us (even pastors, youth pastors, missionaries, Christian counselors, etc.).

So you know what we constantly need? ...

MOTIVATION!

Motivation to live the holy life that God is calling us to live .. and the GRIZ is here to provide just that!

On this episode, I talk about one of the most controversial issues in our world in 2022 ... DEFINING a MAN and a WOMAN!

For some reason, there seems to be a lot of confusion and differing opinions on this issue, and there shouldn't be. God is clear on this and so is science/biology.

The GRIZ Tribe hath spoken on this matter, and I'm going to share what my brothers think about all of this ... as well as an insightful article about this incident and all the celebrities involved. The article comes from Jason Whitlock over at Blaze Media ... article link below ...

It is unfortunate (and even detrimental) that we don't hear much about repentance in many "Christian churches" ... or in modern "Christian music" ... or in modern "Christian books" ... or in modern "Christian counseling" ... or in most "Christian podcast" ... and if we do hear about it, it is vaguely explained or not explained at all.

Repentance is crucial to the health, success, and impact of your Christian life ... it benefits YOU big time!

We are lacking in so many ways, but we often don't realize it until we go through some deep, agonizing, and prolonged pain, suffering, and loss. Pain, suffering, and loss will wake you up to that fact.

In his book, The Problem of Pain, C.S. Lewis so aptly said, "We can ignore even pleasure. But pain insists upon being attended to. God whispers to us in our pleasures, speaks in our conscience, but shouts in our pains: it is His megaphone to rouse a deaf world.”

It's so true. When life is going well ... when life is pain and problem free ... we are often lacking, dull, distracted, self-absorbed, arrogant, and even disobedient. Pain, suffering, and loss can actually be one of the best things that happens to us (if we respond to it the right way).

I don't always respond to it the right way. God has been teaching me how I need to respond. We look at Philippians 4:4-9.
