Why You Keep Falling Into the Same Sin (And How to Break Free) |465
Episode 465
Why do so many christian men fall into the same sinful patterns over and over? Jerrad reveals how habitual sin is often rooted in emotional escape—in attempts to numb pain, stress, or fear. Drawing from his own experience in intensive counseling and a growing commitment to truth-telling, he helps men understand how to face uncomfortable emotions rather than flee from them.
This episode is for every man who feels stuck, ashamed, or exhausted by the cycle of sin and silence. You’ll walk away with practical tools to sit in discomfort, recognize your escape habits, and move toward healing and integrity in Christ.

- Why escaping pain fuels habitual sin in Christian men
- How to recognize subtle behaviors that lead to deeper compromise

- The power of presence, meditation, and prayer for spiritual growth
