295 - Nick Stumbo on Overcoming The Binge-Purge Cycle, Publicly Confessing To His Church, and Why Community Must Be Part of Recovery

Nick Stumbo is the Executive Director of Pure Desire Ministries International, author of two books, and an ordained minister with the Christian and Missionary Alliance. After facing his own addiction to pornography, Nick and his wife, Michelle, found hope and healing through the counseling and group ministries of Pure Desire. Today, Nick continues to believe that the Church can become a place of healing and that Pure Desire is leading the way.

In today's episode, he details his recovery story as a third-generation pastor, why his pride left him stuck in a binge-purge cycle for years, how he confessed to his church his struggle (while pastoring), and the forgiveness revival that materialized after. He also explains why community changes people's lives and the importance of the local church in the future of porn addiction recovery.
