📻 𝙀𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙮 𝙈𝙖𝙣’𝙨 𝘽𝙖𝙩𝙩𝙡𝙚 𝙋𝙤𝙙𝙘𝙖𝙨𝙩 – 𝐄𝐩𝐢𝐬𝐨𝐝𝐞 𝟏𝟗 𝐒𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐍𝐨tesIn Part 2 of their series on safely using technology in recovery, licensed counselors JJ West and Doug Barnes move from big‑picture concepts to practical guardrails for your phones, computers, and apps. They show how to combine device transparency, filters, access‑point removal, screen‑time limits, and handheld Sabbaths with deeper heart work so that technology supports your recovery instead of sabotaging it.You’ll learn:Why device transparency (no secret devices or codes) and active accountability are freeing, not controlling.How filters, parental controls, and disabling private browsing act as speed bumps and check‑engine lights, slowing you down long enough to ask, “What am I really seeking right now?”Why simply restricting screen time isn’t enough, and how to replace unhealthy tech habits with prayer, journaling, exercise, and connection so you become the kind of man God is calling you to be.🎟 Use code 𝐄𝐌𝐁𝐏𝐎𝐃 to save $100 when you register for the Every Man’s Battle Intensive, and ask about scholarships and recovery groups that help you live with integrity in a digital world.📧 𝐁𝐎𝐍𝐔𝐒 𝐂𝐎𝐍𝐓𝐄𝐍𝐓 𝐅𝐎R EMAIL 𝐒𝐔𝐁𝐒𝐂𝐑𝐈𝐁𝐄𝐑𝐒Want extra content to encourage your integrity, delivered via email each month? 👉 Email [email protected] with “Bonus Content” in the subject line to receive exclusive Every Man’s Battle Podcast resources.To send questions or suggest future topics (including specific tech tools or scenarios you’d like addressed):👉 Email [email protected] with “Podcast Question” in the subject line.☎️ Need help beyond the podcast—counseling, groups, or a structured recovery plan?👉 Call 800‑NEW‑LIFE or visit NewLife.com for Christian counseling, workshops, and recovery groups that go beyond behavior management to heart‑level change.🎟 𝐒𝐏𝐄𝐂𝐈𝐀𝐋 𝐎𝐅𝐅𝐄𝐑 – 𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐘 𝐌𝐀𝐍’𝐒 𝐁𝐀𝐓𝐓𝐋𝐄 𝐈𝐍𝐓𝐄𝐍𝐒𝐈𝐕𝐄 & 𝐌𝐄𝐍’𝐒 𝐆𝐑𝐎𝐔𝐏𝐒If you’re realizing that your tech habits keep pulling you back into old patterns, it may be time to get help beyond filters and willpower.
