Summary: “It’s so great you’re helping *those* people.” Sometimes people will say that at church. They’re trying to compliment me, because they think that having a porn related podcast or having a church support group related to sexual issues is kind of a noble thing. And they see the people who go to that are not people like themselves.<br> But I help others because it helps me continue to walk out the journey. So when they talk about *those* people, they don’t realize that they’re speaking directly to one of *those* people.<br> As you start to look around in your own journey and recovery, you start seeing others who are a little farther behind who are making the same mistakes you did. And you start getting a vision for helping them.<br> In this episode you’ll learn:<br> <br> * Working on your own journey is a necessary component to being a good servant leader.<br> * Investing in others will help you grow.<br> * The steps needed to build an effective group.<br> * Tips on how to lead with confidence and keep people safe.<br> * Those who attend may not be the people you expect.<br> * Building a group, like recovery, takes time.<br> <br> Resources and links mentioned in this episode:<br> <br> * <a href="http://redeemedlives.org/">Redeemed Lives</a><br> * <a href="http://desertstream.org/crosscurre%20nt/">CrossCurrent</a><br> * <a href="http://desertstream.org/">Desert Stream</a><br> * <a href="http://saddleback.com/connect/ministry/celebrate-recovery">Celebrate Recovery</a><br> * <a href="http://www.samsonsociety.com/">Samson Society</a><br> * <a href="https://www.faithfulandtrue.com/">Faithful and True</a><br> <br> <a href="http://traffic.libsyn.com/pornfreeradio/pfr_014.mp3">Right click here to download the mp3 file to your desktop.</a><br> “Listened to episode 10, of your podcast (<a title="010 Four Porn Pitfalls With Popular Media" href="http://recoveredman.com/010-four-porn-pitfalls-with-popular-media/">Four Porn Pitfalls With Popular Media</a>.) Wow. Excellent stuff. Thanks for being so honest and open about your experiences and struggles. It would have been easy to make this a finger-wagging type of podcast, but since you genuinely shared from where you are and where you’ve been it came off more genuine and inspiring. Instead of receiving a list of movies or shows “we” should not watch, you did a great job of explaining how you came to your decisions and offered some honest questions that we all need to ask ourselves in our journeys. Thanks again.” -Jason<br> Transcript:<br> <a href="http://recoveredman.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/pfr_014_transcript.pdf">Click Here to Download the Transcript for Episode 014 (PDF)</a><br> Thanks for all your ratings and reviews in iTunes.
