As a young man Joe was sexually abused by an older man and in the confusion that resulted he broke many of the rules. He was sexually active with both girls his age and with older men. Also he escaped into the addictions of LSD, and meth chemically and the sexual addiction was not just casual sex but also with pornography. What next happen could have been a scene cut from the recent movie “The Jesus Revolution”. In 1971 a pretty girl invited Joe to Calvary Chapel and hear the preaching of Chuck Smith. He fell in love with Jesus and over time was healed both inside and out. Once he had been healed he turned around to help others who were struggling with sexual sins and has been doing that since.
