Three months ago. That's a lot of pain. Yeah. And it's wild. It's like, you know, I spend a lot of time talking about porn. But when I do men's events, I know 90% or more of the guys there have or are struggling with porn. The thing that I get to minister to people about is that. There's some kind of father wound. And there's levels of fatherlessness.

There's fathers that they weren't there at all. There are fathers that divorce or death. It would be easy for me to become the father that's absent in that I'm there, but I'm trying to overcompensate so hard that I'm not present anymore. So, so many guys with a similar wound.

How do I keep the balance? I mean, for me, it's like, again, my wife is just the best. Where we were doing premarital counseling and... We were looking at the five love languages, and she was saying her top love language is quality time. And naturally, the way that we are naturally inclined to love people is the way in which we most...

naturally receive love, which often is not the same as our spouse. And with Hope, she wanted quality time. Her family, it's like if they fell out of the Hallmark Channel. It's not real life. She talks to her mom and her sister multiple times a day. They're on like, her sister just had a baby. It's wild. It's nothing like I've ever seen. It's not uncomfortable, but it's so normal it's weird to me.

But she was like, quality time. So when I hear quality time, I'm like, quality date, quality dinner, something really good. She's like, I want to sit on the end of a pier where the water is completely placid and just sit there, no phones, nothing, just unattached from everything, just me and you. The greatest gift that you can give me, the greatest present that you can give me is your presence.

And that's hard for somebody that doesn't think a lot of themselves. So it was almost like the way that she required me to love her well allowed me to heal. It was like, man, how could you see that in me? And there's just been so many times where she has just did things and said things that have been so healing to me. So with our kids, you know, she reminds me that, you know,

like Cannon especially, that's my dude, he likes presents and likes stuff. But at the end of the day, he wants me to sit on the ground and play tic-tac-toe with him. And it's like we overcomplicate simple things that distracts us from the most meaningful things.

So it's that. The way that she loves me well is she lovingly course-corrects me from time to time. Sometimes it's a bony elbow, and sometimes it's a kiss on the cheek. But she's never afraid to tell me the truth, and I appreciate that so much about her.

It is wild. I mean, we were sitting with a group of people, and someone asked her, well, in good faith, they were asking her, gosh, I just admire you so much. How do you not have animosity towards him? Slept with thousands of girls, did all this stuff. It's all over the internet. And how do you not have like something like in you that causes you to compare yourself?

You know, like how do you not have animosity and like, how do you not have that in you? And she was like, well, I knew him for five days before he gave his life to Christ. Um, so I'm not going to hold his past against him. Like, and, um, I don't believe that when you Google him, you will find the thing that's most true about him.

The thing that's most true about him is that he is a son of the King of Kings. So I'm gonna speak to him and think of him the way that God does, not the way that Satan does. Because Satan would like me to hold on to his past. But God says, that is my son whom I'm well pleased that's been forgiven and cleansed by his blood.

Like the prodigal son, like the prodigal son took one step toward his father. The father ran towards him and put a ring on his finger or sandals on his feet, a robe on his back and threw a party because he said, this is my son who's come home. And I think, man, it's like, if we could just understand who God is, he would seem not only more attractive, but irresistible.

Yeah, let's do it.

Father, we thank you that we get to look at you and say, Abba, Father. We thank you for our time together. And Lord, we just pray that the conversation that we had, it is both convicting and comforting in that it doesn't matter what you've done. It doesn't matter what's happened to you. It doesn't matter how far you've gone. You cannot outrun or out sin what Jesus has done for you on the cross.

and to the person that is wrestling with and struggling with pornography addiction, God, I pray that you lovingly correct them, that you do not condemn them for their sin, that if they are a follower of you, that they are someone that would say, hey, I call myself a follower of Jesus. Your word says that Romans 8, 1, that there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. So I pray that

They don't feel condemned in shame, but they do feel corrected in their spirit and that this is not a good thing. This is not something that they should hide. This is something they need to tell someone that's close to them and that they pursue freedom and healing. And God, I just pray that to the person that doesn't know you,

That we understand that we were created to live forever and where we spend forever is up to us. That you sent your son into this world to die the death that we deserved. He paid our debt on the cross. And God, I just pray that to the person that doesn't know you, that they, right now in this moment, that you draw them close to yourself and they say, hey, I'm a sinner that needs saving.

I don't know how to do it on my own. But Jesus, I pray that you come into my life, that I turn from my sin, that I turn to you and I give you my life and I trust you. And I pray that you fill them with the Holy Spirit so they can follow you with all their life for the rest of their life. We pray this all in Jesus' mighty name. Amen.

Yeah.

Yeah, and just the reality that wherever you are today, you're not stuck. You know, you can change. It doesn't have to always be this way. That's the gospel that, you know, God loves us enough to meet us where we are, no matter what our situation is. But he also loves us enough to not leave us as we are.
