from Pastors in Recovery · host Jon Hammond

Episode 101 - Your Brain Is Trained by What You Entertain: Reels, Temptation, and RecoveryWhat happens when the same platform that helps you stay connected also becomes a threat to your recovery? In Episode 101 of Pastors in Recovery, Jon begins with a five-minute audio drama, then shares an honest and practical conversation about Facebook Reels, temptation, accountability, boundaries, and spiritual formation. This episode explores how to retrain the algorithm, reduce exposure, remove unnecessary apps, redirect important relationships, and report honestly to trusted accountability partners. Jon also shares his own Facebook Reels experiment, practical tools for limiting time, changing the environment, keeping the phone out of vulnerable spaces, and using timers before the scrolling begins. But the issue goes deeper than social media settings. What we repeatedly entertain shapes our thoughts, habits, and desires. Recovery involves guarding the doorway, bringing secrets into the light, and feeding the spirit through prayer, Scripture, worship, fellowship, and a growing relationship with Jesus. The goal is not to tell everyone what they must do. The goal is to provide tools, encourage honesty, and help each listener decide what boundaries are necessary to protect what matters most. Your brain is trained by what you entertain.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/pastors-in-recovery--6262503/support. Connect :🌐 www.pastorsinrecovery.com🌐Facebook.com/pastorsinrecovery📧 [email protected] the Podcast:▶️ Youtube.com/@pastorsinrecovery 🟢 Spotify and Apple Music (and all major streaming platforms) search for Pastors in RecoveryPodcast Music:🟢 Spotify and Apple Music (and all major streaming platforms) under Crashing Lyrics▶️ Youtube.com/@crashinglyrics -> Pastors in Recovery Playlist This episode includes AI-generated content.
