Addiction and Grace: Love and Spirituality in the Healing of Addictions Description
From Library Journal
The deepest human longing, suggests the author of Will and Spirit ( LJ 2/1/83)a psychiatrist and spiritual directoris to be in loving relationship with God and others, but our freedom to do so is compromised by a multitude of addictions (to security or fame, for instance, as well as to drugs) that "use up" desire. Exploring psychological, neurological, and theological aspects of the addictive process, and their roles of mercy, grace, and will in breaking through to discernment and a consecrated life, May gently but clearly guides readers from attachment to non attachmentor freedom. Extremely well done. EC
