Sam Black joins the 95Podcast today to discuss his new book, “The Healing Church.” The conversation centers around the devastating impact that pornography is having in society as a whole as well as the church. Sam challenges us to develop authentic ministry pathways that provide an avenue for people to experience healing and wholeness by being set free from porn’s addictive nature.
This is an honest and enlightening conversation highlighting Sam’s desire to see every church become a Healing Church.

Key Takeaways
1) It’s a simple fact that many people in the average church congregation are struggling with a pornography addiction. Jesus wants to use your ministry to bring healing and wholeness to these discouraged people.
2) So many people dealing with the stronghold of pornography were first exposed to it at a very young age.
3) According to the New Testament book of James, true healing comes when we confess our faults one to another. It’s almost impossible to break free from the stronghold of pornography without the assistance of other sympathetic believers.
4) Addressing this issue head on will most likely allow your ministry to have a huge impact in your community. There are very few avenues for people to pursue to find healing and wholeness.
