Summary

Sometimes we have secrets so dark and extraordinary we keep them to ourselves for YEARS.

Lacy Abercrombie is known for her satirical Christian TikToks, but what people don’t know is that at 11 years old she became addicted to pornography. It wasn’t until she was in college— ironically at a Bible school! —that she finally opened up about her dark struggle. Coming clean was one of the hardest decisions she ever made because she feared being cast out by the people closest to her.

In this episode of The Spillover, Alex and Lacy discuss female pornography addiction, church hurt, sexual abuse, and how Jesus redeems our shame.
