Finding God’s Peace in the Midst of Suffering and Addiction with Gus Campbell
from Never Perfect Faith · host Dr. Beth
When an 18-year-old senior is brave enough to share a vulnerable story in front of his entire high school for his chapel talk, including his battle with pornography addiction, to cry while the pain of a friend’s suicide, his mother’s life-threatening battle with cancer, the death of a grandparent, and to share his faith, it’s a story that needs to be shared with a broader audience. Gus explains that he was and is willing to talk publicly about his addiction to pornography because he has talked to so many friends who also struggle, and because he knows he’s been forgiven by loving God, who has his hand over him. Beth and Gus talk about the fact that we all look for something to fill our souls, and most of us succumb to some sort of temptation that is greatly lacking. Our souls are looking for some thing, infinite because our souls are infinite.
