Every Man’s Battle Podcast

📻 𝙀𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙮 𝙈𝙖𝙣’𝙨 𝘽𝙖𝙩𝙩𝙡𝙚 𝙋𝙤𝙙𝙘𝙖𝙨𝙩 – 𝐄𝐩𝐢𝐬𝐨𝐝𝐞 𝟐𝟏 𝐒𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐍𝐨𝐓𝐄𝐒

In this powerful facilitator spotlight, JJ West and Doug Barnes sit down with Bob Sklar, one of the original Every Man’s Battle facilitators. Bob shares a 36‑year recovery journey that includes childhood sexual abuse, early pornography exposure, a porn‑shaped view of sex, coming to Christ at 18, harmful church advice, multiple relapses, and finally discovering the missing piece: connection with God, self, and others through Every Man’s Battle and Sustained Victory.

You’ll hear:

1. How abuse, secrecy, and moving every three years formed emotional “templates” of not belonging, driving Bob to porn to “thermostat” his feelings and escape reality.
2. Why negotiating with addiction (“I’ll just look once…”) is like bargaining with a terrorist, and how poor disclosure and “work your own side of the street” thinking delayed his wife’s healing.
3. How EMB and deep friendships with other facilitators taught him rigorous honesty, emotional language, and authentic connection, leading him to say, “I didn’t just get sobriety; I got a life.”

If Bob’s story feels uncomfortably familiar—decades of white‑knuckling, partial disclosure, relapse, and secret negotiation with your addiction—it may be time to stop managing and start truly recovering. The Every Man’s Battle Intensive is a 3‑day, Christ‑centered workshop where:

1. Licensed Christian counselors teach biblically grounded, clinically informed material on sexual integrity.
2. You participate in small‑group sessions led by trained facilitators like Bob, JJ, and Doug.
3. You experience real connection with men who share your struggle and want the same freedom.

After the workshop, New Life’s Sustained Victory and other Every Man’s Battle groups (online and in person) offer weekly community so you don’t go back to isolation. They help men continue to build connection with God, self, and others—the very missing piece Bob describes as revolutionary for his recovery.
