(3:32) what is addiction?
11:17 Chris - I've struggled with Sexual addiction. I'm in recovery now. Wreckage it's left behind is terrible. Trying to figure out how to repair that. Making amends is something that just doesn't happen.

(21:07) Break 1
Chris- 2 programs for sexual addiction. Which one is conformity with Catholic teaching?
(27:22) Can you be addicted to romance novels?
(29:50) Cynthia - Just got off the phone with somebody in rehab with a crack issue. God has opened that door to help them. Going to rehab Saturday. Those of us that have had issues need to speak out and share our story and testimony. So often it's a secret because of shame.
How can we help others who are struggling with addiction?

(37:43) Break 2
Can you use anointing of the sick for addiction?
(41:02) Sharice - How does God feel about pushing child away? Son has been addict for 11 years. He gets physical and abuse towards us. Husband is afraid he's going to go on the street and die.
