#687 - This Pride Hides. It Must Be Exposed

August 17, 2026
Pure Life Ministries Podcast

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.

Today, we continue our discussion on pride by examining self-protective pride—a subtle but dangerous form of pride employed by those in sexual sin because of the shame they feel.

When faced with vulnerability, do you default to building up a wall? Do you seek to preserve your image above all else? Biblical counselor Ryan Stempien joins us to expose how this pride takes root, why it's so destructive, and how Christians can overcome it.
