What if your real addiction isn’t a habit—but a soul pattern formed from rejection?
In this powerful episode, Dr. Gary Lawrence—author of Rejection Junkies—reveals how unresolved rejection becomes a hidden addiction that hijacks our emotional healing, distorts our identity, and blocks us from hearing God.
We talk about:
Why spiritual growth alone won’t heal soul wounds
The real root of bitterness—and why it spreads
How to reclaim your emotional voice and choice
What forgiveness really means when you’re still hurting
How to move from performance-based faith into Spirit-led peace
