#368 - Behind Sexual Sin Lies the Pleasure Hormone

January 13, 2020
Pure Life Ministries Podcast

Pure Life Ministries has been a pioneer in dealing with sexual addiction and its consequences for over 35 years. During that span of time thousands of people have found freedom through our counseling programs and teaching materials.

There is a physiological aspect to all addiction. We get addicted to things that at first are very pleasurable.

The hormone released in the brain that causes us to feel pleasure can be quite intense, but diminishes in intensity over time. So we keep repeating the behavior, seeking the high, but with diminishing return.

This is the nature of addiction. Steve Gallagher teaches us that Behind Sexual Addiction Lies the Pleasure Hormone.
