He did over 1,000 porn films. Won the industry's top award. Made millions. And he wrote a suicide note listing why he'd never be a husband, father, or contribute anything good to the world. Joshua Broome was one of the most recognizable names in adult film—until a bank teller called him by his real name. A name he hadn't heard in two years. In this episode, Josh exposes what the porn industry doesn't want you to know: → How recruiters target broken people with specific questions about their childhood → The girl who showed up on set on her 18th birthday (and how she got there) → Why performers don't use their real names—and what that does to their humanity → The 49 colleagues Josh personally knew who died by suicide or overdose → Why 84% of young Christian men admit to watching porn monthly This isn't an anti-porn rant. It's a Christ-centered conversation about redemption, the father wound, and what it actually takes to break free.

Pastor Will uses Exodus 16 and the story of manna to show that God’s design for spiritual growth is daily dependence on Him, not occasional encounters, as Israel’s grumbling in the wilderness revealed hearts shaped by fear and self-reliance while God responded by inviting them into a daily rhythm of trust, obedience, and relationship through heavenly provision; manna illustrates that yesterday’s encounter cannot sustain today’s hunger, teaching that discipleship is formed through consistent daily encounters with God—especially through prayer, the Word, and worship—which cultivate intimacy, maturity, and readiness for holy visitations, ultimately pointing to Jesus as the true Bread of Life who satisfies and transforms His people one day at a time.
