Jay opens up about the internal voice telling him to confess his porn addiction - and why he actively chose to ignore it for years. We explore:

• The pattern of CALCULATED DELAY

• What that "voice of truth" actually sounds like

• The PERSONAL COSTS of ignoring God's promptings

• The split-second decision between truth and silence

• How SILENCE IS NEVER NEUTRAL

• When lying feels holy

If you're struggling with porn addiction, betrayal trauma, or wondering whether to come clean about your secrets, this conversation offers hope and practical insight into this crucial part of the recovery process.
