From High School Bullying to a Life of Sobriety and Service

In high school, Jordan Castille was bullied for being a male cheerleader—and later turned to pornography to cope with the isolation and insecurity. In our conversation, I hear how he found healing through faith, honest friendships, and a small group where he could finally share what he’d kept hidden. 

Jordan also speaks candidly about relapse after marriage and becoming a parent, and the trauma-focused work that helped him reach five years without pornography. We discuss why recovery involves more than stopping a behavior: it can mean facing old wounds, finding a healthy community, and learning to live as the person God created you to be.
