Today, Michael sits down with Dr. Camden Morgante, licensed clinical psychologist and author of "Recovering from Purity Culture." Together, they dive into the real impact of purity culture within evangelical communities, exploring the myths and messages that have shaped so many lives, often with shame and fear at the center.

Drawing from both professional expertise and personal experience, Camden unpacks the psychological and spiritual wounds purity culture can leave behind and offers a thoughtful path toward healing, reconciling mind, body, heart, and soul. The conversation doesn’t stop at identifying problems; it reaches for hope and reconstruction, offering practical tools for embracing a healthier, grace-filled s*x ethic—and even guidance for raising the next generation with greater wisdom and compassion.

In this week's podcast, Michael John Cusick is joined by author, speaker, and men's group leader Drew Boa to discuss Drew’s groundbreaking new book, "Outgrow P**n: Find Lasting Freedom Without Fighting an Exhausting Battle."

This conversation dives deep into breaking free from po*******hy—not through more willpower or "white-knuckling," but by truly healing and growing emotionally, relationally, and spiritually. Drew shares how his approach helps men connect with their inner child, understand their s*xual fantasies, and use practical tools (14 of them, to be exact) to experience genuine freedom. They also discuss the impact of betrayal and s*xual addiction on wives and partners, highlighting the importance of support and compassion for everyone affected.

Together, Michael and Drew challenge the traditional “battle” rhetoric around po*******hy recovery and invite listeners into a paradigm-shifting journey—one where lasting change is possible and shame doesn't get the final word.

In this week’s conversation, Michael is joined by returning guest and renowned author John Eldredge, known to many as the author behind the bestselling book Wild at Heart. This time, John dives deep into the message of his latest book, Experience Jesus. Really. Together, Michael and John unravel the life-changing invitation to authentic, everyday communion with Jesus—beyond religious formulas, beyond inspiration, and into truly experiencing God’s presence in a way that’s both simple and profoundly transformative.

They discuss why many believers feel let down by empty promises of intimacy with God, how technology and today’s relentless pace are wounding the human soul, and why, now more than ever, we need ancient practices of deep attachment and interiority. John shares his heart for spiritual restoration—rooted in Isaiah 61 and a Gospel that offers not just rescue, but soul-deep wholeness and restoration for both men and women. The episode also explores the misunderstood beauty of Christian mysticism, the importance of “benevolent detachment,” and practical tools like the Pause app, which John’s team created to guide people into genuine encounters with Jesus—accessible to everyone, everywhere.
