Journey from Porn Star to Preacher

The Redeemed Man

New to Hollywood and hungry for success, model/actor Joshua Broome agreed to do a porn film “just to put [his] toe in the water.” When word got back to his hometown, though, the shame convinced him a porn star was all he’d ever be, and he ended up appearing in more than 1,000 adult films before finally leaving the industry in 2013. But with the help of a loving wife, a good spiritual advisor, and friends willing to hold him accountable, Joshua realized he didn’t have to be defined by his past—and that God had so much more in store for his future. Today a sought-after speaker and author of 7 Lies That Will Ruin Your Life, Joshua speaks with Nate Dewberry about the bad choices and misconceptions that sent him down a dark path, as well as the lessons that helped him realize he was still worthy of God’s love. For anyone convinced that past mistakes have rendered them unworthy and unlovable, this week’s Redeemed Man podcast is a must-listen.
