Free From Porn
This isn’t another “try harder” purity podcast.
It’s not about white-knuckling your way to freedom or stacking up shame-fueled accountability check-ins.
This is about transformation.
Real, lasting, gospel-centered freedom from pornography—not someday, but today.
Hosted by former addicts turned freedom coaches, Richard Young and Justin Khoe, Free from Porn is a no-shame, no-fluff conversation rooted in one bold truth:
If Jesus has set you free from sin, then porn doesn’t get to define you.
Each episode exposes the lies keeping you stuck, renews your mind with truth from God’s Word, and helps you walk out the freedom you already have in Christ.
Expect raw honesty, biblical clarity, practical strategy, and stories from people who’ve actually broken free—not because they got stronger, but because they started believing what Jesus already said was true.

#2: Why “Trying” to quit porn doesn’t work
If effort alone could set you free… you’d be free by now.
Let’s get honest.
You’ve tried the filters.
You’ve tried the alarms.
You’ve tried accountability, apps, and prayer marathons at 5am.
And yet—you’re still stuck.
In this episode, Justin and Richard dismantle the lie that white-knuckled effort leads to lasting freedom. Spoiler alert: it doesn’t. In fact, trying harder may be reinforcing the very addiction you’re trying to escape.
🧠 WHAT YOU’LL LEARN
- Why discipline and willpower aren’t enough to experience gospel-centered transformation
- How the “Pavlok shock collar experiment” (yes, really) exposes the limits of behavior modification
- The tragic consequences of shame-based purity culture—and why it keeps people stuck
- What Romans 12:2 actually teaches about real transformation (hint: it’s not “try harder”)
- A practical 2-step tool to renew your mind: identify the lie → replace it with truth
- Why the discomfort of temptation isn’t proof that you want porn—but that you actually don’t
💡 BIG IDEA:
Your problem isn’t willpower—it’s what you believe.
If your mind is filled with lies, your life will reflect it.
But if the truth sets you free…
Then freedom starts with renewing your mind.
🛠️ PRACTICAL TAKEAWAY
End the cycle of guilt.
Trade in the shame.
Let the Spirit of God reveal the lies…
…and replace them with truth.
You’ll even be guided through a powerful prayer to help you do it—right here in the episode.
