In this episode of Tips w/ Ty, I’m sharing one of the most important and personal conversations of my life—the war for our eyes. This isn’t just about lust or pornography. It’s about reclaiming your mind, your relationships, and your spiritual health. If you’ve ever struggled in this area or know someone who has, I want you to know: there’s hope, and freedom is possible.
💡 Here’s what I talk about in this episode:
• How pornography rewires your brain and affects your ability to think clearly and build healthy relationships.
• What the Bible says about lust, with scriptures like Matthew 5:28, Luke 11:34, and Job 31:1.
• How I made a covenant with my eyes and practical steps you can take to break free from addiction.
• Why lust is the enemy’s counterfeit for true intimacy—and how it holds us back from living fully in God’s purpose.
🎙 My Story:
When I was 10 years old, I was exposed to pornography, and it planted a seed that grew into a stronghold in my life for years. It affected my relationships, my thought life, and my spiritual health. But through prayer, accountability, therapy, and the grace of God, I experienced freedom—and I want the same for you.
📖 Key Scriptures I Share:
• Matthew 5:28: “Anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart.”
• Luke 11:34: “Your eye is the lamp of your body. When your eyes are healthy, your whole body also is full of light.”
• Job 31:1: “I made a covenant with my eyes not to look lustfully at a young woman.”
