I wish there were some way to explain the freedom that you can only receive when you have Christ in your heart. The God I serve is not the image that some people have of a white robed, bearded old man with a scowl on his face condemning us. I couldn't begin to explain His mightiness. Guilt is a terrible thing to have to live with, I do agree to that. Yet I would rather feel guilt for doing evil than be numb to it.
Why shouldn't this be treated as a carefully crafted infomercial?
There is something inherently dishonest about this whole thing. Maybe its the lighting, the music, the scripting, or maybe the entire packaging. The guy cheats on his wife with prostitutes gets caught, and makes a 2nd career from from it. How many of us can say yes I cheated on my wife and sold a book after I did it.
Praying for all of the cynics. Have you nothing better to do than to attack and insult a man and his struggle? You're all entitled to your opinion - but you're insulting a guy who is trying to live his life as he sees fit -- following Jesus.
AWWW poor man couldn't come to grips with his sexuality and natural impulses that resulted on his self destruction. Be proud! You know something you love. You fell for false guilt. Watching porn is not a "private war".... Admiting your watching porn is like admitting you like movies.. OMG YOU MASTURBATE!! is one of the many problems with religion. You had the guilt installed in you. So you can never leave and do what you want. That is not love, it is slavery of the heart.
Church creates perverts and hypocrites, this guy was married but he picks up hookers on his way to church? No wonder he feels like an asshole. I'm sure Jesus fixed it all until his repressed feelings come back once again.
If he would have just lived a normal life without being in a cult he could have jerked off to internet porn like normal people and be faithful to his wife the way he should. Or at least he wouldn't have lead a double life and make his family feel embarrassed and betrayed.
am i the only one who thinks this is the most typical christian "god saved me from drugs" or "god saved me from porn" bullshit? and besides, hes a bad actor if it even really is his own story.
Pornography isn't a bad thing unless you become obsessed with it. Looks like this guy did just that. Glad I'm not obsessed. But then again, I'm also glad that I don't belong to that religion anymore n_n
The really sad thing is that it was christianity and its vanilla utilitarian sex that drove you to perversion. All that built up repression came exploding out into debauchery. Christianity was your problem fool, not porn.
Did you quit using porn altogether. If not, do you find yourself objectifying women or teens? I mean now. My life was destroyed by a man like you were/are. I know God is able.
"Now I know that, Jesus never loved 'Saint Nate.' 'Cause He didn't make 'Saint Nate', He made ME. Jesus loves ME, wants a relationship with ME! And that's the only REAL relationship there is."
God bless you Nate, your testimony changed my life
"Now I know that, Jesus never loved 'Saint Nate.' 'Cause He didn't make 'Saint Nate', He made ME. Jesus loves ME, wants a relationship with ME! And that's the only REAL relationship there is."
OOH WEE!!! I love this right here. Simply Powerful! I love how he truly ended up finding God after he thought that he had found Him long before. I love what his wife told him, first when she said "I love you but I don't like you" that to me was like BOOM!!! because that can be so true and so deep and then I love how she would do the first 20 years again to have the last 10, that is beautiful. This I AM SECOND campaign is awesome, I love what they're doing and how they're doing it. God Bless!
If this resonated with you, read Nate Larkin's book "Samson and the Pirate Monks". I've only read part one, but it allowed God to give me one more glimpse that he wants me to live and not die. That's hope.
This is one of the best testimonys I have ever heard. What a way to wear your heart on your sleeve. Thank you Mr. Nate Larkin. Check out our page and skits.
God's grace is more than we think it is. It doesn't just take guilt away, but it transforms ways of thinking no matter how far you've gone away from God's plan for you. Nate has done something difficult in admitting his faults, but in that weakness God's power is made perfect.
LOL, You looked at porn! LOL LOL What a fucking retard! "Pornography allowed this intamacy with no risks."- Nate Larkin Right right, that is why prostitution should be legal. "Until I got caught."-Nate Larkin LOL Idiot. "Jesus never loved Saint Nate."-Nate Larkin Some dead Jew didn't like somebody. "The people who are the most upset with what I do, are the biggest closeted perverts. I know, I danced for them."-Jenna Jameson "He actually used my adiction for good."-Nate Larkin Please.
Every one who commented to Nate's story with doubt and discord. Is it hard for you to kick against the pricks? Hmmm??
