Welcome to Job with Julie, and we rarely do this, but this is a part two.

And if you haven't listened to Part 1, that would be last week's podcast with Jonathan Dardy.

I remember it because it's a party.

I'm going to always remember that now.

But Jonathan, you shared about your history with sexual addiction, even having grown up in a Christian home.

And you brought us all the way to the point of God totally breaking you, full confession

to your wife of all the things that you've been involved with, and her essentially packing her

bags and saying, I never want to speak to you again, I never want to see you again.

And you talked about how that was a moment that began your recovery.

And so, again, if you haven't heard that episode, I highly encourage you to go listen to that one first

and then come back and join us for this one because we're going to get to the second part of the story.

And also talk about some application of how this might impact your

own relationship, your own marriage, your own sin struggle.

And so we're going to make this really practical as we get into what you experience.

So pick us up.

Yeah.

So this is what I call a good part of the story.

Yeah.

Because, you know, it's interesting.

God called me into ministry 14 years ago with three words. He said, tell your story. And I actually resisted for about a year before I finally went into full-time vocational ministry. And the reason I resisted was because I really wrestled with God. And I said, God, I'm happy to tell the second half of the story.

Yeah.

But I don't really like telling.
