Todd Frazier — Testimony

Todd leads the Hockley, TX in-person group and helps run the Sunday Zoom.

Several years ago, my marriage was struggling, my walk with God almost nonexistent, and I was depressed because I did not have a sense of purpose. This resulted in a heavy dosage of porn as a means to escape the struggle, and I came to a point where I depended on it. It was a drug — but it was my thing. I deserved it. I was told it was natural and that's just what men do.

However, the truth was that I had a disease. This was not natural. It ate at me physically, mentally, and spiritually. It seemed to provide a brief moment of escape but would plunge me deeper into depression and caused me to keep my wife and children at a distance. Even worse, I believed I was unclean and unworthy of God's love and grace.

I finally had enough. I needed to change. I needed to become a better man, husband, and father. But how? No one talks about this stuff. Especially at church. Who can I talk to?

The B.O.L.D. group was my answer. With a renewed relationship with my Savior, Jesus Christ, and with the help of the men in the group, my walls began to come down. By the blood of Jesus and the community of these brothers, the disease was eradicated from my mind and spirit. I was set free and found purpose.
