What if lust isn't really about sex, but about the wounds, shame, and pain hiding underneath it?
Desiree sits down with Jorge and Dimitri for a raw conversation about pornography, infidelity, secrecy, and the battle happening in the mind long before it becomes visible in a marriage. Together, they unpack how unresolved wounds can fuel destructive patterns, why a husband's struggle is not a reflection of his wife's worth, and what real recovery requires.
This episode offers both husbands and wives a biblical perspective on healing, forgiveness, community, and the hope available when what has been hidden finally comes into the light.
