Episode Synopsis

Episode 25 of The Courage, Coaching and Counseling Podcast is with Nick Stumbo.  
As a third-generation pastor, Nick started his ministry career at the East Hills Alliance Church in Kelso, Washington. Serving as their lead pastor for more than a decade, Nick observed the fallout of sexual brokenness and devastation in the lives of men and women in the church and recognized, like never before, the need for a culture of grace in the Church.  After facing his own addiction to pornography, Nick and his wife, Michelle, found hope and healing through the counseling and group ministries of Pure Desire. It radically changed their lives! His public disclosure to his church body led to a revival of forgiveness and healing, launching Pure Desire groups—of hope and freedom—for men and women.  Today, as the Executive Director for Pure Desire, Nick continues to believe that the Church can become a place of healing and that Pure Desire is leading the way. His passion for the Church and this ministry is evident.  
Nick and Michelle have four kids, ranging in age from 16 to 8, and live in Gresham, Oregon. Nick is an avid runner, having completed 8 marathons, including the Boston marathon. He is a sports enthusiast and has a deep love of the Minnesota Twins.  
EXPERIENCE AND ACCOMPLISHMENTS: Featured on Focus on the Family Radio. Fifteen years of pastoral ministry experience. Author of Setting Us Free and Safe: Creating a Culture of Grace in a Climate of Shame. Frequent contributor to Pure Desire blogs and podcasts, and documentaries on sexuality and addiction recovery.
