In this powerful episode of Your Biggest Breakthrough, we sit down with filmmaker and police officer Jaron Lockridge to discuss faith, addiction, suffering, purpose, healing, and how one unexpected YouTube video became a turning point in his life. Jaron shares his incredible journey from witnessing trauma and brokenness as a police officer to battling a personal faith crisis that nearly pulled him away from God. He opens up about overcoming pornography addiction, discovering a deeper relationship with Christ, and why he felt called to leave successful secular filmmaking behind to create faith-based media that authentically portrays the struggles Christians face.
