Publisher's summary

A former porn star-turned-preacher reveals seven lies our culture tells us and guides us to the only thing that creates authentic happiness: a relationship with Jesus.

Joshua Broome knows this firsthand. He had a successful career in the adult film industry, making lots of money and achieving notoriety and all the markers of success. And yet he felt empty inside. After hitting rock bottom, he cried out to Jesus ... and it was only then that he was fully redeemed.

In 7 Lies That Will Ruin Your Life, Joshua examines seven things we are told will make us happy and shows how each of them points us back to our need for God.

Using his own journey as a point of reference, 7 Lies That Will Ruin Your Life pairs his personal experiences with Biblical truths, demonstrating both how we can be deceived and the healing truth that comes when we realize that Jesus really is enough.

Powerful testimony and very eye opening!

I listened to the audiobook and I love that Joshua was narrating it. This story is very eye opening about what goes on in this evil industry. His testimony of how God saved him is such an encouragement to my faith.

Thank you so much!

First I want to say thank you Joshua for sharing your story and being so honest and vulnerable. This takes a lot of deep reflection for someone to do.

I remember hearing about your book from “JP” on a podcast.

I knew I needed to listen but was hesitant but knew the Lord wanted me to listen to this book.

Your story is similar to mine in some ways, to be able to connect with you and have scripture be poured over you with incomprehensible love and grace and compassion from God. Is just wow! Only God!

I want to get the actual book at some point and read it again. It’s so good! So many great reminders and needed the Lord to pull out the God of self.

Thank you so much Joshua and all who partook in making this book possible,

His honesty, relatability and guidance 🙏🏼

Listening to Joshua share his journey is heartfelt and remarkably HEALING. I truly felt knots in my own life becoming undone, I could relate to his story, it was confirmation of why I closed many doors years ago, and he made clear how it's through the Grace of Jesus that our path to TRUE PEACE comes to fruition by just taking that first step and trusting in God always. God forgives the inexcusable in us and we should forgive the inexcusable in one another, that's authentic forgiveness. From there, love, healing and new beginnings grow. Can't put into words the strong gratitude I feel in my heart for God leading me to this book, there's no coincidences!

So much of God’s truth

Loved that each of us are challenged to acknowledge our broken hearts and inform it with God’s perfect plan and purposes so that we can experience the abundance He offers.
