On this episode: A new Samson website updates and an opportunity for IT volunteers. Nate takes his ear muffs off. Aaron shares what makes Jesus like you more. This week, Nate and Aaron interview Molly LaCroix. Molly is a therapist and author from Bend, Oregon. She helps Nate, and Aaron apply the principles of I.F.S (internal family systems) to the lives of Samson and David (from the Bible). Discussion includes the potential that both Samson and David were sex addicts with details that aren’t frequently considered. Molly explores that emotions are as physically rooted as a broken leg. She explains why sin doesn’t feel like running a cheese grater over our chest but has pleasure, adrenaline, and sometimes power. She also discuses a cohort for minister workers that is happening in 2026, and how you can be involved.Links: Molly LaCroixBooks: Journey To Shalom: Finding Healing, Wholeness, and Freedom in Sacred StoriesSept. 12-14, 2025 Austrian Retreat Nov 7-9, 2025 Santa Fe, NM Samson Summit Nov 7-9, 2025 The Wild & Sacred Journey, Womens RetreatSponsor: Life Works CounselingIf you have thoughts or questions and you’d like the guys to address in upcoming episodes or suggestions for future guests, please drop a note to piratemonkpodcast@gmail.com.
