Love your honesty and so appreciate you sharing your story! We can all relate to this in some way. Thank you so much for your openness and for being willing to help others by sharing your testimony. You are not an ex porn star you are a child of God.
God had plans for this guy. I hope his ministry focuses on the people who are addicted to the scourge of porn. A lot of these people myself included, were sexualized as a child. He could do a LOT to help people with this. Too often people think that people can't change, but I feel they can. I hope Josh can help God heal those who are in the battle against porn addiction.
"I stand at the door and knock.." God was waiting for you to open the door.. God spoke thru the teller to call you by name. God loves the sinner. God loves Joshua.
Very inspirational! I hope Joshua will consider forming a support group for male porn actors who want to get out of the porn industry. He is the perfect guy for this ministry. Let's continue to pray for Joshua and his family.
God knows I grappled with watching porn in my 20s and early 30s. Then I sort of grew out of it. While the hormones are still prone to rage even as I approach 60 years old, there's also a sense of wanting to be sweet with a woman, wanting to form and maintain and deep spiritual connection, wanting to really love and understand her as a person.
Maybe someone can help me with my question. I wish the interviewer asked it. How is if that so many people recognised him in North Carolina? Is it that all these people were watching porn? Because in the real world I can't imagine anyone knowing who porn actors are unless you're actively watching it and involved in it like many are in Hollywood and know actors. If that's the case then it's astonishing that so many watch porn. I would also love to know if he experienced backlash and perfection from his fellow porn stars seeing he was so popular and how he was able to witness Christ to them. So many questions I wish were asked. Also did he experience any persecution from Christians or suspicion to this day? Do people suspect him or feel uneasy around him as a pastor around women for example?
How did your co-workers from Wholefoods know, "you're that guy..!" Say to them, "confessing your sin is the first step" "thank you for trusting me enough to admit this" "God loves you he can forgive you also.."
While I really applaud Joshua for his honesty and transparency I wonder why he still needs to ‘perform’. As a Buddhist, the most cool people I gravitate to do the opposite - how they live without saying a word reflects that their doing the inner work shines. Many Christians I have encountered tend to look down upon and judge others. Part of joshua’s appeal is that he won’t be able to do that. If he does he can just be shown a movie of him f@@@@@ a man while he is a straight guy. I really applaud the guy and think he will be good for Christianity precisely because his past will require him to retain honesty and humbleness - there is a lesson there that applies to many of us Christian or not. Don’t become another arrogant saved one who then looks down on others Joshua
Joshua has such a good testimony, heard it on Vlad Savchuk's channel and just barely missed him on Isaiah Saldivar's channel today so decided to subscribe to him and gonna watch Isaiah's video cause he's got such a unique perspective and solid example for everyone stuck in sin that needs to get out. Keep speaking Joshua.
Mr. Hallowell thank you for inviting Joshua, and most importantly for allowing him to speak. So many interviewers are too busy trying to get their next question in, and are not listening. The times you interjected were handled well and done respectfully. Would love to hear your follow up with Mr. Broome.
Fascinating story. I have a private question do you have a website or an email for those? It's a clean question from a saved married woman in Florida. Thank you, God 🙏 Bless you both. Great interview!
This “pastor” told me Satan was controlling me because I work nights and have zero energy for church activities. He didn’t even offer prayer when I opened up to him about my struggles. I pray he changes his uncaring ways.
I'm sorry that happened to you, something similar happened to me when I was a small child going to Sunday school. It took me some 20 yrs to give it another chance. I'm certainly glad I did. The people in the church have hurt me again and again, but God never has .
