From Porn Star to Pastor: Joshua Broome’s Radical Redemption Story

“You are not the author of you. God is.”- Joshua Broome

That line has been echoing in my spirit since recording this episode. Honestly? I’m still processing it.

In this week’s episode of A Matchmaker’s Guide to Love and Life, I had a conversation I’ll never forget—with Joshua Broome, an ex–porn star turned pastor, husband, father of four, and now author.

Let me just say: this episode is longer than usual, but it’s worth every single minute. I say that in the beginning and I’ll say it here again—if you’ve struggled with porn, if you’re in a marriage touched by it, or if you simply need hope for your mess… this is for you.

Joshua reminds us that “God makes a mosaic out of the mess,” and “You can only be as free as you're willing to be honest.”

We went deep. Josh shared how because of his life in  Hollywood he felt hopeless, and how one moment—a simple bank teller asking, “Joshua, are you okay?”—was a divine appointment that shifted everything.

And y’all… we didn’t hold back.

We also tackled one of the biggest lies I hear all the time:

“I don’t care if my husband watches porn.”

If you’ve said that—I love you. But I have to say: that’s not what your heart really believes. That’s a protective wall you’ve built from pain, disappointment, or a wound you haven’t had the space to heal. Josh and I unpacked this with so much grace and truth.

This episode is raw, redemptive, and filled with wisdom I wish every couple, every young adult, and every parent could hear.
