JOSHUA BROOME | From Pornstar to Patriarch

Pornography is something that negatively impacts millions of men on a daily basis. And, yet, so few of us know what really goes on behind the scenes of the adult entertainment industry. We hear whisperings of the shadiness and degeneracy, but it continues to permeate just about every fabric of society.

My guest today is Joshua Broome. He is a former adult film star and even named porn star of the year. He spent 6 years in the industry, before fleeing to find himself, warn others about the dangers of pornography, and the message of Christ. Today, we talk about the manipulation that takes place in the porn industry, overcoming the tremendous guilt from poor decisions, how obedience and discipline create freedom, owning your past, lust versus love, and eliminating “contaminants” from our lives.
