This episode tackles the profound question: "Why? Why do I keep doing this? Why can't I stop?" We dive deep into the roots of problematic sexual behavior, moving beyond shame to understand the complex interplay of factors that drive us. There are 7 "Why's" outlined to help you learn that these struggles often stem from misdirected natural instincts, emotional dysregulation and unmet human needs, rather than just a simple "lack of willpower."

We explore the brain's reward system and how behaviors can "hijack" the brain, creating powerful cravings that make breaking free incredibly difficult. Discover how early wounds and traumas, along with the pervasive influence of modern culture, contribute to these patterns. Drawing from Catholic wisdom, we frame this battle within the context of concupiscence—our wounded human nature inclined to do evil —and the constant call to spiritual battle.

Ultimately, this episode is an invitation to humble, prayerful introspection, guiding you to identify your own "whys" with the help of God's grace. It's the essential first step towards reclaiming your freedom and pursuing a life of authentic purity and joy in Christ. Enjoy and please consider sharing with someone you know that can benefit. Reviews help too!

"My God, my God, why have You forsaken me?" – Psalm 22:1-2. Have you ever felt abandoned by God? "How long, O Lord? Will You forget me forever?" – Psalm 13:1-2. Have you ever wondered when God would heal you? "If God loves me, why am I still struggling?" Does it feel like the problematic behavior is forgotten by Our Lord?

In this episode, Steve covers those feelings as well as the shame that comes along with it. He covers the double life we live, the discouragement we feel, the danger of numbing the pain, betrayal of wife and marriage and the call to action for healing. Plenty of hope is offered along with helpful tips and suggestions.

Blended in is Scripture, the Catechism, the Saints and suggestions to address the feeling that God isn’t there for me, the shame that comes with this problem.

In this powerful episode, I'm honored to have Vinny Flynn, Catholic author, speaker and Divine Mercy expert, to explore how Christ’s Divine Mercy heals the wounds of shame and brings peace, and even renewal to the heart of a betrayed spouse. Tune in for insights into how St. Faustina found purity, the painting of the Image, the Chaplet and JPII making the Sunday after Easter 'Divine Mercy Sunday.' And don't miss Vinny's wisdom on God the Father's love for us and how seeking deeper union with Him transforms our hearts.

In this episode, we tackle the concept of negative sobriety—when someone merely avoids acting out but doesn’t pursue real transformation. White-knuckling through temptation is unsustainable. Sober is not well. Jesus calls us to have life and have it abundantly. We have to get past not acting out and grow in virtue so that doing the right thing becomes second nature.
