Zach Dasher is joined by Brandon Hudson to welcome you into a life in God's kingdom. Humans are beings who desire. But what is desire? How does it shape us, and how are our desires shaped? Are some Christian beliefs just Buddhism by another name? Was C.S. Lewis right that our desires aren’t too strong but too weak? Why is suppressing desire unsustainable? What happens when we kick the demons out? Can our yearnings be redeemed and reoriented? God wants so much more for us. How can we begin to cultivate an imagination for transforming our desires and our lives?
