Those struggling with addiction often believe that their desire is wrong or bad. As a result, we learn to stifle our desires and lock them in the basement of our hearts and minds. 

On this episode of The Faithful & True Podcast, Dr. Greg Miller and Curt Thompson, MD continue their conversation unpacking Curt’s new book The Soul of Desire. 

Listen as they discuss how our addictions and coping strategies are often the keys to help us unlock a better understanding of what we really long for.
