This is the weekly purity podcast from Pure Life Ministries. Our show will take you where real life meets real Christianity as we tackle the tough issues for those struggling with sexual sin. Thanks for listening!
The holy law of God tests the human heart to its core. It cuts against pride, selfishness, lust and injustice. It requires (and rewards) genuine, self-sacrificial love. It asks every seeker after God a penetrating question: Will we truly submit to God and His ways, or will we embrace the spirit of lawlessness and self-will?
Timeless Truths: The greatest threat to the church of the Last Days is not the antichrist, but rather the spirit of antichrist that is already powerfully at work in the world.
Yahweh wanted a unique and exclusive relationship with Israel. He wanted to reveal Himself to her and use her to call the nations to Himself. But Israel was so used to serving sin and self that she didn't know the first thing about embodying the humility, selflessness and purity of a God like Yahweh. In this episode, we’ll look at the momentous day when God came down in fire on Mt. Sinai to give Israel His law, and we’ll talk about...
From the Chapel: If we're living in a way that opposes God and His will, we cannot have genuine fellowship with Him. This means that we all must be willing for God to point out grievous ways inside of us. Once He does, we must return to Him, asking for forgiveness and mercy.
At the dawn of creation, sun and moon, stars and planets, birds, beasts, fish and man freely submitted to the authority of God. And then a rebel creature invited mankind to choose their own will above the will of God. And with that, the spirit of lawlessness began to work in this world.
Welcome to our series, “Resisting the Rise of Lawlessness.” In this series, Steve Gallagher and the staff of PLM will offer both scriptural and pr...
In the midst of trials, we need a place to turn to for comfort, help and answers. And when we turn to the Word of God, we find a source of eternal truth. But more than that, we find something that can go inside of us and make us into new creations. In Episode 8 of the Hope for Hurting Wives series, Kathy Gallagher talks about the incredible power of the Word of God, and why hurting wives should cherish it as their very life.

Timeless Truths: Every sincere Christian has made a decision to submit to the will of God. But that decision is going to be tested—especially in America. We’re surrounded by so much prosperity that, if we’re not careful, we can easily be drawn away from devotion to Christ and into a spirit of covetousness.
One of the worst parts about addiction is the sinking feeling that you’ll never break free from the horrible cycle of sin. You start to wonder if there’s any way out at all. But many of the men who come through our Residential Program can point to a defining moment when God broke through the darkness and they knew they’d never be the same. These breakthrough moments happen regularly for men at Pure Life Ministries, and it’s the fif...
The culture we live in can easily shape our attitudes and values. But if we are going to be true followers of Christ, all other allegiances must be renounced, and we must become assimilated into the Kingdom of God.
At PLM, we have the ideal setup for men who want to break free from sexual addiction. A beautiful 45-acre campus that is separated from sources of temptation. And, we go straight to God's Word to find real answers for life’s deepest struggles. Plus, we have a team of men who have personally found victory over sexual sin and have been trained to help others walk that same path. But something still more is desperately needed. In toda...
Paul warned that many false teachers would gather followers by appealing to people's fleshly desires. As Steve Gallagher explains in this "Timeless Truths" segment, that warning is needed just as much in our day.
Ambitious athletes seek out a coach. Sick people find a doctor. New business owners get a mentor. Why?
Because they know they can’t get where they need to be on their own. And if this is true in sports, medicine and business, how much more necessary is it for those who want freedom from something as powerful as pornography? In this episode, we'll look at reason #3 our Residential Program is so effective at helping men overcome sex...
There are many people who believe that because we are justified by faith, the way we live our lives—our thoughts, words and actions—has no bearing on whether or not we are saved. The New Testament actually teaches the exact opposite.
Why is our Residential Program so effective at helping men break free from sexual sin? Because we lead people to the TRUTH—the only thing that has the power to bring people into real freedom. In this episode, we'll talk about some of the most common lies our Residential Program students are battling with, and we'll walk through the very truths that dismantle these lies.
Resources we mentioned:
Compulsive porn users. Serial adulterers. Out-of-control spenders on sex. These are the kinds of men who enroll in our 9-month Residential Program, and for over 35 years we’ve been watching God radically transform these men. But why is our program so effective? In this short podcast series, we'll look at the top five reasons why so many men find a brand-new life at our Residential Program.
Resources we mentioned:
Pride...it brought about the fall of Satan and put man at odds with God, resulting in the destruction of man. This is why the role of humility in a Christian's life can hardly be overestimated. Humility undoes the damage of the fall, and God becomes his protector and his friend.
Resources we mentioned:
Weston was only 4 years old when a friend introduced him to erotic images. Then, as a young teen, he discovered internet pornography. This set off a painful cycle of getting caught, making empty promises to change, and falling back to his sin. This all lead him to a place of utter hopelessness and even contemplating suicide. But when Weston came to Pure Life Ministries, he found true life through brokenness, godly sorrow and repent...
When Chris looked at Marissa, he saw a woman who would help him control his lust. He saw someone who would help him achieve a prosperous life. When Marissa looked at Chris, she saw a man who would help her pursue the Lord, someone who would help her cultivate the kind of spiritual life she dreamed of having. One day, both of their dreams came crashing down. But this did not result in the destruction of their marriage. Instead, it b...
Sin always comes with painful consequences. Emotional, physical, or relational pain. And for many people, these consequences often stir up difficult questions. "If God loves me, why would He allow such hard consequences? Does this mean that God has forsaken me? Is there any way to move forward after this?" In today’s episode, we look to the Scripture to give biblical answers to some of these questions.
God genuinely loves us, but unless we are doing our utmost to repent of sin and worldliness, He is not going to be pleased with us. And while He does not expect us to achieve sinless perfection, He does expect us to obey His call to "Be holy as I am holy."
