He Made Millions in P*rn…Then Jesus Changed Everything | w/ Joshua Broome
1h 13m | Aug 12, 2026What happens when you build a successful business, grow your influence, and gain more opportunity — but your private life is slowly falling apart?
In this episode of the Faithustle Podcast, Mukwenda Kandole sits down with Joshua Broome for a raw conversation every Christian entrepreneur, founder, business owner, and leader needs to hear.
Joshua knows what it looks like to build success on the wrong foundation.
Before following Jesus, he became one of the highest-paid performers in the porn industry and built multiple successful careers.
Today, he is a husband, father, author, speaker, and Bible teacher helping men and women around the world walk in freedom from pornography, shame, sexual brokenness, and hidden sin.
But this episode is not just about Joshua’s past.
It is about the danger of compromise in leadership.
Because most leaders do not wake up one day and decide to destroy their marriage, reputation, business, or ministry.
It usually starts small.
A hidden habit.
An unchecked wound.
A boundary that gets moved.
A secret nobody knows about.
A moment of stress where you medicate instead of heal.
Joshua puts it plainly:
“Sin doesn’t stay where you put it.”
And for Christian leaders, that truth matters.
The more influence you carry, the more important it becomes to build your private life with the same intentionality you build your business.
In this conversation, we unpack:
• How hidden compromise grows over time
• Why leaders are especially vulnerable when stressed, tired, isolated, or driven
• Why pornography is often deeper than sexual desire
• The connection between shame, identity, and addiction
• The danger of trying to out-achieve your brokenness
• Why money, influence, and success cannot heal your soul
Joshua’s testimony is powerful because it proves that your worst decisions do not have to define your future.
But his warning is just as important:
Do not wait until everything falls apart to take your integrity seriously.
If you are building a company, leading a team, growing a platform, or carrying influence in the marketplace, this episode will challenge you to ask a deeper question:
Is the person behind the business healthy enough to carry where the business is going?
