How Sin Makes Us Addicts
Tim Keller | February 14, 1999
Overview

There is an attraction at the spiritual level every bit as powerful as sexual attraction at the physical level: You cannot produce your own meaning in life,your own worth,your own security. Spiritually speaking,if it’s not God who is the source of your meaning,then you’re in bed with something else.
