In today’s powerful and vulnerable conversation, Drs. Zach & Tim Clinton sit down with Joshua Broome to briefly unpack his incredible testimony which includes a journey from being one of the most recognizable faces in the adult film industry to finding true identity, healing, and purpose in Jesus Christ. Together they discuss the devastating effects of pornography and sexual compulsivity/addiction on individuals, relationships, and our culture at large. Joshua shares not only his story but also his passion to help others break free from the chains that once held him captive. This is why in today’s conversation they announce the launch of a brand-new initiative at the American Association of Christian Counselors titled: Walk Worthy. This is an initiative that Joshua will lead moving forward geared toward equipping the church and Christian counselors with resources, training, and discipleship strategies aimed at helping men and women pursue sexual purity, integrity, and deep spiritual formation. Pornography and sexual addiction aren’t fringe issues…they’re mainstream, widespread, and silently destroying countless lives. This conversation is a reminder that hope, healing, and holiness are possible through Christ, and that the church must be a safe, equipped place for those seeking freedom.

In this powerful episode of the Built Different Podcast, Dr. Zach Clinton sits down with father-and-son evangelists Cliffe and Stuart Knechtle, the voices behind Give Me an Answer and leaders at Grace Community Church in New Canaan, Connecticut. Cliffe, Senior Pastor and founder of Give Me an Answer, has spent decades engaging skeptics and truth-seekers on college campuses across the nation, from Harvard and Yale to Stanford and UCLA.

Stuart, Assistant Pastor at Grace Community Church and co-host of Give Me an Answer, holds master’s degrees in Divinity and Mental Health/Marriage and Family from Gordon-Conwell. He partners with his father traveling to universities, leading family ministries, and offering Christian counseling, while also engaging in debates and online outreach. Together, we unpack their testimonies, their call to ministry, and the generational legacy of faith that God has written through their family. We discuss the growing hunger for holiness among young people, the influence of media on culture, the dangers of building life on fleeting feelings, and the hope of the Gospel in seasons of suffering. The Knechtles also share how to effectively share your faith and live out 1 Peter 3:15—“Always be prepared to give an answer…with gentleness and respect.” Finally, toward the end of today’s conversation, the gospel is so clearly presented and a prayer of salvation is offered to help you or someone you love take that first step in receiving the grace and forgiveness God so freely gives to become a child of The King! If you pray that prayer to receive Christ for the first time, or maybe to recommit your life to Him during this episode, know that all of heaven rejoices over you as a son or daughter of God. If that decision is made, we encourage you to share it with a pastor or trusted friend, get connected to a local church community, dive into God’s Word, and allow the Holy Spirit to shape your journey of spiritual formation. 🔗 Links: Give Me an Answer: https://youtube.com/@givemeananswer?si=5DBw2E-eIfpJl94G Grace Community Church (New Canaan, CT): https://www.gracecommunity.info/who-we-are Meet Cliffe & Stuart: givemeananswer.org/meet-cliffe-stuart Follow Stuart on Social Media: https://www.instagram.com/stuart_knechtle?igsh=Z3ppa25jd2N4NXo2 Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.

She broke records. She earned the accolades. She defied the odds. And she’s just getting started! But Izzie Smulik’s story isn’t just about soccer…it’s about rising through adversity with grit, grace, and an unshakable faith in God’s plan. In this inspiring episode, Dr. ZachClinton sits down with his second cousin, Izzie Smulik, a standout high school soccer star from E.C. Glass High School in Lynchburg, VA. In just three years, Izzie became the school’s all-time leading scorer and points leader — for both boys and girls — earning titles like 1st Team All-State, ODP Regional Player, and most recently, a spot on a semi-pro team out of Charlottesville. But Izzie’s journey hasn’t been easy. From growing up with ADHD and dyslexia to being told she’d never play D1 soccer or graduate early, she’s overcome it all with the support of her family, her faith, and the game she loves. In this conversation, Zach and Izzie unpack: her recent invitation to compete with the Capelli Sports North American team in Denmark this week, her excitement about signing a full-ride to Liberty University Women’s Soccer, how soccer became a steadying force and a source of purpose, what it means to persevere with character through adversity, and the role of faith, family, and fierce determination in her growth every step of the way. If you’ve ever felt underestimated, overlooked, or unsure of what’s next, Izzie’s story will remind you that with faith and fight, “impossible” just becomes the new starting line. 📲 Follow & Support Izzie’s Journey Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ismulik16/ Liberty Women’s Soccer Team: https://libertyflames.com/sports/womens-soccer Capelli North America Girls Team: https://www.topdrawersoccer.com/club-soccer-articles/capelli-sport-north-america-girls-roster_aid54774 Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.

What if magic wasn’t just smoke and mirrors, but a doorway into deeper faith? What if curiosity wasn’t something to outgrow, but something to reclaim — even in your walk with Jesus? In this episode, we explore the intersection of illusion, inquiry, and intimacy with God, and how wonder may be one of the most powerful evangelistic tools we’ve overlooked. In this unforgettable conversation, Dr. Zach Clinton and guest co-host Joshua Broome sit down with Drew Worsham, an acclaimed illusionist, author, and pastor who has spent over 20 years integrating magic and ministry in a way that captivates audiences and points them to Christ. Together, they dive into: how illusions can reveal truth rather than distract from it; the power of childlike faith and spiritual curiosity; why Jesus was the most curious person to walk the earth and how that shaped His relationships; how wonder, empathy, and questioning can deepen our relationship with God and others; practical ways to rekindle awe in an age of cynicism; and Drew’s new book, The Magic of Curiosity, and his heart behind it. Whether you’re a skeptic, seeker, or seasoned believer, this episode will challenge your assumptions and reignite your awe.
