Awsomness Inside
Sign on the door of my small group at church last year.

“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.

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.

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.

In this episode you’ll learn:

  • Working on your own journey is a necessary component to being a good servant leader.
  • Investing in others will help you grow.
  • The steps needed to build an effective group.
  • Tips on how to lead with confidence and keep people safe.
  • Those who attend may not be the people you expect.
  • Building a group, like recovery, takes time.

“Listened to episode 10, of your podcast (Four Porn Pitfalls With Popular Media.) 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
