Trauma to Triumph: Path to Sexual Wholeness w/ Ben Bennett
Manage episode 504500392 series 3515113
What if your addictions, struggles, and brokenness weren’t just about “trying harder”—but about uncovering the wounds shaping your heart and rewiring your brain with God’s truth?
In this powerful episode of Calibrate Conversations, Brady Cone sits down with Ben Bennett (author, speaker, and co-founder of Resolution Movement with Josh McDowell) to talk about porn addiction, trauma, shame, neuroscience, and the freedom Jesus offers.
Ben shares his story of rock bottom, how neuroscience affirms the Bible’s teaching about renewing your mind, and why true healing requires both spiritual transformation and community. If you’ve ever wondered why you do what you hate (Romans 7), this conversation will give you hope, tools, and freedom in Christ.
