    What an excellent interview Gary. I am praying for him. He has a beautiful son for sure who helped him see the light. Your guest has already overcome so many addictions, God is helping him. He must allow God to take over and carry the burden.

      He is brave to share his personal struggles. His hope and prayer is that somebody will be motivated to find Jesus through his testimony.

    Excellent video, Gary.
    God is so holy that sin cannot exist in his presence, but through the gift of redemption with Jesus, we can have communion with Him, and the closer we draw to God, the less power of sin has in our lives because it must flee from God.

    You can overcome addictions without turning to god.

    Unfortunately gambling can also be speculation in stocks and bonds and real estate type deals.Also commodities trading is also a form of gambling these things are considered normal in the USA.

    Such a tough topic. I’ve had a lot of friends who have ruined their lives by watching porn. I’m praying for both you guys. God love you.

    Such a great interview Joe. A great testimony of a changed life.

  • @tmb3131
    @tmb3131 Před rokem

    Great video! Joe is a relatable individual... full of flaws and wanting of a change. Change will happen as long as you surround yourself with those who enable change. Then, as my father said, ""when you finally find your purpose, you'll realize it was never about you".

    Very honest testimony. Has he thought of "Celebrate Recovery" to get closer to God and find other men that can talk about hurts, and habits?

    Drug addiction is also a serious addiction, but the country of choice is usually not the Phillipines.Usually Thailand or Colombia.

    @michaelfaw4183 Před rokem

    Gary, This your best video yet. I want commend you but especially your friend for the Courage to admit they are addicts. The best hope comes from a program many people have never heard of which is CELEBRATE RECOVERY that is a Biblical 12 step program of which JESUS CHRIST is the Higher Power.

    I am disappointed in those who think that being a Christian is easy. It’s a lie. It is difficult. “If you lay with a dog with fleas you will get those fleas.” Never give up praying and having a personal relationship with Jesus.

  • @jackjeannettewalker7868

    Joe: Consider contacting Filipina women of the past who you took advantage of ... confess and ask thei9r forgiveness!

    Deop the "christian" from your name I might watch. Ive had enough social pressure and control by small minded people in my life thank you. Religion will destroy humanity.

  • @stoicfreediver
    @stoicfreediver Před 10 měsíci

    Get a therapist and get to the root of addiction - religiousity is just another addiction! Dissociation from trauma or abandonment is the root of most addictions, not a lack of religious faith - have faith in yourself! Why tell the daughter?? Omg 😅

    With all due respect "American Christian" doesn't sound American and doesn't know Jimmy dean, @American Christian, are you really American ? I know Americans have many different accents also a diverse immigrant community, so what gives ? Just curious. Thanks
