  • 393 - Training Parents For Conversations About Sex
    Jan 14 2025

    In today’s episode, we dive deep into one of the most important—and often most uncomfortable—topics for parents: talking with your kids about sex. We’re joined by Rodney and Traci Wright, authors of How to Talk With Your Kids About Sex and the primary speakers in Pure Desire’s new Parent Training Course. We tackle key issues like how to address our own sexual health as parents, the challenges of today's media landscape, and how to adjust these conversations as children grow. We also discuss common fears parents have, such as whether talking about sex too early might encourage risky behavior—and why, in fact, it can help prevent it. This conversation goes beyond the biology of sex and emphasizes the emotional, spiritual, and relational aspects that are just as critical to discuss with kids. You'll hear how trust plays a crucial role in keeping the lines of communication open and what parents can do if they've missed early opportunities to talk about sex.

  • 391 - Looking Back & Looking Ahead
    Dec 31 2024

    Happy New Year’s Eve! In this special year-end episode, host Nick Stumbo and guest co-host Heather Kolb dive into the value of self-reflection as we close out one year and prepare for the next. Whether you’re in the middle of a recovery journey, pursuing personal growth, or simply looking for practical ways to start the new year with purpose, this episode has something for you.

    Nick and Heather discuss why self-reflection is vital, not just at the end of the year but throughout our lives. They explore how pausing to look back can help us uncover insights about ourselves, our relationships, and our faith, and how those insights can inform our steps forward. Learn practical tips for identifying priorities, setting achievable goals, and inviting God and others into the process.

    Tune in for practical wisdom, heartfelt encouragement, and a few laughs as we look back on the past year and step boldly into 2025.

Amazing insight

This podcast has helped me realize the traumatic impact of my actions on my wife. I'm now working on recovery and healing with her. This group has been instrumental in helping me manage my addiction, embrace spirituality, and restore hope in myself, my wife, and our marriage.

Combat Spec Ops Medic!! Saved by His grace!!

vVery excited to listen to the rest of these podcasts. I'm living in South America right now, separated from my family and my true love, my wife. God has been at work on me and in me for many years now. U did not know that there was help out there like this. I truly feel this is an answer to prayer and the start of a very longed for and hopefilled New Beginning. Praise you Lord for the Help and encouragement! i love being a "Narrowgater!"

For men and women who desire to follow God's will.

These guys are doing the good work of God. They are helping others eliminate unwanted behaviors with the end game being, helping others find their purpose for their lives serving God. The podcasts are great snippets of joining a seven pillars or beyond betrayal group.
