You're not defined by the worst thing you've ever done | Pastor Jeff x Joshua Broome | The BRAVE Way

What if the worst mistake you ever made doesn't define who you are? Joshua's story shatters the lie that shame determines our identity. Born to teenage parents in small-town South Carolina, Joshua watched his father live across the street but remain a stranger—leading to a desperate pursuit of validation through performance. This hunger for approval ultimately led him into the porn industry for seven years, where success couldn't silence the voice telling him he wasn't enough. Pastor Jeff reveals how Joshua's transformation began with one simple truth: "You are not defined by the worst thing you've ever done because you are not the author of you—God is." Through the love of a woman named Hope and an encounter with grace, Joshua discovered that God doesn't wait on our front porch with condemnation, but runs toward us with open arms. His story reminds us that no past sin can hinder what God has prepared for our future—if Jesus is Lord. Don't let shame rob you of the freedom Christ died to give you.
