In this pivotal fourth episode of our Sexual Purity series, we confront the truth that tomorrow’s character is made out of today’s thoughts. Sexual sin doesn’t appear out of nowhere—it’s the predictable result of a process that begins in the mind. Drawing from Matthew 15, we explore how Jesus raised the standard of purity far beyond external behavior to the very thoughts of our hearts.

We begin by examining where lust comes from—not from out of the blue, but from within. What we feed our minds determines the person we become. As the saying goes: Sow a thought, reap an action; sow an action, reap a habit; sow a habit, reap a character; sow a character, reap a destiny.That’s why your most important sex organ is not your body—it’s your mind.

Victory starts with setting wise boundaries. Many of us want purity, but we sabotage ourselves by making choices that feed lust instead of starving it. Through personal testimony, we discuss practical boundaries—from avoiding certain places to guarding our eyes—not as legalistic rules, but as lifesaving habits that protect our hearts “above all else,” as Proverbs 4:23 commands.

But we can’t just try not to think about impurity. The mind is not a vacuum—it will be filled with something. Instead, we learn to fill our minds with what is pure, true, and lovely (Philippians 4:8). Using a memorable illustration about snakes and chocolate cake, we demonstrate how pure thoughts actively push out impure ones. You can’t stop birds from flying over your head, but you can stop them from nesting in your hair.

Finally, we confront what lust does to us—it’s mental promiscuity, a sickness of the soul that marriage cannot cure. Like arsenic, lust poisons us gradually, but through repentance, accountability, and the renewing of our minds by God’s Word and Spirit, freedom is possible. This episode is a call to make a covenant with our eyes, to flush out the poison, and to experience the superior satisfaction found in a mind transformed by Christ.

If you’re ready to move beyond willpower and win the battle where it really begins—in your thoughts—this episode offers biblical truth, practical steps, and hope for lasting change.

Episode 3: Targeted — Spiritual Warfare, Lies, and the Superior Satisfaction of Purity

In this urgent third episode of our Sexual Purity series, we face a sobering truth: if you are a Christian, you are a targeted man or a marked woman. Hell has taken out a contract on you. Drawing from the story of Achan in Joshua 7, we explore how Satan seeks to destroy lives through seemingly “harmless” compromises—especially when we are tired, isolated, or discouraged.

We begin with a crucial warning: pride is the prelude to a fall. Assuming “it could never happen to me” is the very attitude that leaves us vulnerable. Spiritual warfare is real, and the enemy waits for moments of weakness to pounce. But we are not unaware of his schemes.

One of Satan’s oldest tricks is the illusion of privacy—whispering that no one will know. Yet Scripture is clear: there is no such thing as a private moment before God. Sexual sin will be exposed, and its consequences are far-reaching—damaging our fellowship with God, nullifying our prayers, and hurting those around us, just as Achan’s hidden sin brought judgment on his family and nation.

But how do we fight back? We learn to identify Satan’s lies. Temptation always looks good—like a beautiful fishing lure designed for destruction. In every moment of temptation, we must choose whose voice to believe: God’s truth or Satan’s deception.

Ultimately, victory is not found in mere willpower, but in superior satisfaction. Lust promises relief, pleasure, and happiness—but it cannot deliver. Only Jesus satisfies the deepest thirst of our souls. This episode makes the case that saying “no” to immorality is not saying no to pleasure, but saying “yes” to the greater, lasting joy found in intimacy with God. When our hearts are satisfied in Christ, sin loses its appeal.

If you’ve ever felt targeted, trapped, or tempted to believe that purity is too difficult, this episode offers biblical strategy, hope, and the bold reminder that He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.

In this powerful second episode of our series on sexual purity, we tackle one of the most pressing and misunderstood questions: Why does sex matter so much to God? Drawing from 1 Corinthians 6:18, we explore why sexual sin is uniquely damaging—not just as an act, but because it touches the very core of who we are.

We begin by affirming that sex is not a human invention, but a sacred gift created by a holy God—declared “very good” from the beginning. Through passages like Proverbs 5 and the Song of Solomon, we see that God celebrates sexual pleasure within its intended context: the lifelong covenant of marriage.

But sex is also incredibly powerful—like fire. Contained within its proper boundaries, it brings warmth, intimacy, and life. Outside of them, it brings devastation. Many have experienced the pain and hopelessness that comes from sexual brokenness, but there is hope. Purity is not a restriction; it is a pathway to beauty, freedom, and a reflection of heaven itself.

We delve into the clear boundaries Scripture provides: sex and marriage are inseparable. Sex is designed to unite two persons—body, soul, and spirit—in a commitment that mirrors Christ’s love for His church. God’s design is not to deprive us, but to protect us, because His rules are always enforced, and breaking them always breaks us.

Finally, we ask the most important question: Who owns your body? Using a simple but striking pencil illustration, we revisit 1 Corinthians 6:19–20: You are not your own. You were bought with a price—the blood of Jesus. Living in purity is not about following arbitrary rules; it’s about honoring the One who made you, redeemed you, and knows what is truly for your good.

If you’ve ever wondered why God cares about sex, how to navigate temptation, or how to reclaim a life of purity, this episode offers biblical truth, honest reflection, and hope for the journey.

Key Scriptures: 1 Corinthians 6:18–20; Genesis 1:31; Proverbs 5:18–19; 1 Thessalonians 4:3–8

Join us as we pursue God’s best—and discover why purity is worth the fight.

Have you ever chosen sexual impurity and then felt angry at God for the consequences that followed? If so, you're not alone. In this raw and honest launch of our new series on Sexual Purity, we tackle the heart of our struggle: we often see God's commands as restrictions stealing our joy, rather than the protective guardrails they truly are.

This episode isn't about shaming you for past failures. It's about a fundamental shift in perspective that can change everything. We’re dismantling the lie that purity is a prudish rule and revealing the shocking, practical truth: Purity is always the smart choice; impurity is always a stupid one. There are no exceptions.

We'll explore:

• The Idolatry Trade: How sexual impurity is, at its core, a transaction where we trade God's presence and future blessing for an immediate, empty experience.
• The Gravity of Consequence: Why, like the law of gravity, the painful outcomes of impurity are built into the act itself—shame, warped relationships, and a hollow soul.
• Enlightened Self-Interest: How God’s call to purity is His invitation to what is truly best for us, protecting our future joy, family, and purpose.

This is a life-and-death issue. The world’s message has blurred the lines, leaving the church struggling with the same bondage. It’s time for clarity. Let's start by clearing the air: God isn't trying to rob you of pleasure. He's trying to save you from the slaughterhouse.

If you’re tired of the cycle, feeling defeated, or have never understood the "why" behind purity, this episode is your crucial first step toward freedom and a rewarding life.

Does your home ever feel like a war zone? What if the real battle isn’t within your family, but for your family? In this final urgent and empowering episode, we shift from defense to offense, learning how to fight the spiritual battle for our children’s hearts and our home’s health.

Using the gripping story of Nehemiah, who rebuilt Jerusalem’s walls amid relentless opposition, we discover a powerful parallel for modern parents. The enemy is crafty and relentless, seeking to devour our families through external pressures and internal discouragement like fatigue, frustration, and fear. But we are not powerless.

This episode is a battle plan. We’ll unpack four decisive strategies from Nehemiah’s playbook to help you stand guard and rebuild:

1. Request God’s Help: Learn why prayer is your first weapon, not your last resort, in submitting to God and resisting the devil’s schemes.
2. Rally Your Family: Discover the power of unity and how stationing your family on the “wall” of faith creates an unbreakable bond of love and protection.
3. Remember Who God Is: Combat discouragement by fixing your eyes on the Lord who is “great and awesome,” trading your focus from the rubble of your problems to the Rock of your salvation.
4. Reclaim Your Family: Hear the call to fight for your sons, daughters, and spouse—to never quit pursuing right relationship, no matter how difficult the season.

This is a call to arms for every parent. It’s time to put on the full armor of God, sharpen your spiritual knives, and stand in the gap for your home.

Tune in and learn how to stop fighting with your family and start fighting for them with faith, strategy, and divine power.

What is the single most powerful force shaping your child’s sense of self-worth and future? It might not be discipline or instruction, but something more foundational: the reflection they see in your eyes. In this profound episode, we explore the life-changing biblical tool of affirmation and its crucial role in building the unshakeable, godly self-esteem every child needs.

Moving beyond the world’s noisy conceit, we define true self-worth as a quiet sense of value rooted in being created in God’s image. Using Ephesians 5 as our guide, we unpack the divine call for parents to “nourish” (to bring out) and “cherish” (to protect) the priceless potential God has already placed within each child. Discover what happens when a child’s primary mirror is a parent who reflects God’s love, not a world that reflects their flaws.

In this episode, you will learn three practical, biblical tools for effective affirmation:

1. The Tool of Understanding: How to become a parent who “draws out” your child’s deep-hearted plans, gifts, and God-given interests (Proverbs 20:5).
2. The Tool of Involvement: Why sharpening your child requires your direct, patient, and costly investment in their daily life and growth (Proverbs 27:17).
3. The Tool of Reflection: How your words and attention act as the primary mirror that tells your child who they are—will you reflect failure or their sacred identity in Christ? (Proverbs 27:19).

This is more than positive thinking; it’s spiritual warfare for your child’s identity. If you want your child to find their worth in God and not in the brutal opinions of peers or culture, this episode provides the biblical blueprint.

Tune in to learn how to become the mirror that shows your child the saint God sees, not the sinner the world highlights.
