One Thing Struggling Christians Are Missing

Patrick Hudson
Director of Ministry Outreach

Pure Life Ministries has been a pioneer in dealing with sexual addiction and its consequences for over 35 years. During that span of time thousands of people have found freedom through our counseling programs and teaching materials.

As a professing Christian, have you struggled with sexual sin or some other form of sin consistently? The problem could very well be the quality of your Christian life. With apologetics and theology as big resources in the church—which is by no means a bad thing—it’s all too common to mistake knowing facts about Jesus with having a relationship with Him. Is that you?

Director of Ministry Outreach Patrick Hudson explains this dilemma using Isaiah chapters 53-55, and shows us the way into victory in today’s sermon.

Patrick earned a bachelor’s degree in music composition and a teaching credential from Point Loma Nazarene University and went on to teach music for several years. Though he sensed God’s call from an early age, he became entangled in sexual sin and worldliness, leading to years of licentious living and its ensuing guilt. In time, God led him to the Pure Life Ministries Residential Program where he experienced a profound transformation. Today, Patrick serves in the media department, overseeing the production of video and print content that testifies to the redemptive power of the Cross.
