Can religion make us happier?

from Matters of Soul Importance with Roxane Salonen

Dr. John Sottosanti was successful in the world's eyes. He had a lovely wife, two children, a beautiful home in California with an ocean view, and a career that had catapulted him to the top of his industry, and into spheres that only a top percentage of people penetrate. But was he happy? In his memoir, "Mortal Adhesions: A Surgeon Battles the Deadly Sins to Find Faith, Happiness and Inner Peace," Sottosanti recounts his motivations and missteps through a life of focusing on self, and how it nearly led him down a path of eternal destruction. Can religion make us happier? For years, he didn't believe it could, but in this conversation, he'll share what happened to cause a change in his heart and life.  SHOW NOTES: "Mortal Adhesions" book: https://www.amazon.com/Mortal-Adhesions-Surgeon-Battles-Happiness/dp/1666774464 Interview with the Eternal World Television Network: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aTf_SaZr4UM Interview with "At Home with Jim and Joy" TV Show: Part 1: https://bit.ly/3VAOBdB; Part 2: https://bit.ly/3vCPRlC Dr. Sottosanti's website: https://mortaladhesions.com/ Worldwide Marriage Encounter: https://wwme.org/ National Cursillo website: https://www.natl-cursillo.org/
