From Shame to Freedom: Nate Larkin’s Redemption Story

What happens when a preacher’s kid with a secret becomes a voice for thousands of men seeking freedom from addiction and shame?

In this episode of Who Gave Jeff Allen a Podcast?, Jeff and Carollynn sit down with Nate Larkin — speaker, author, and founder of the Samson Society. Nate shares the raw, redemptive, and even humorous story of how his double life as a pastor and sex addict came crashing down… and how that wreckage became the foundation of a worldwide brotherhood.

You’ll hear about:

✅The turning point that led Nate to confess everything to his wife

✅How he went from isolation to deep male friendship

✅Why churches often struggle to talk about the things that matter most

✅And how the Samson Society is helping thousands of men find hope and healing

It’s a vulnerable and powerful conversation about faith, addiction, marriage, and the messy, beautiful path to redemption.
