In this powerful conversation, Joshua sits down with therapist, minister, and researcher Jay Stringer to explore how our desires—and even our unwanted behaviors—tell the deeper story of our lives. Building on the foundation of his groundbreaking book Unwanted, Jay unpacks how our earliest experiences, family-of-origin dynamics, and unaddressed wounds shape the desires we carry into adulthood. He then connects these insights to the themes of his newest book Desire, showing why transformation requires more than suppressing behavior—it requires understanding the story beneath it.
Together they dive into the links between trauma, attachment, identity, and sexual brokenness, offering a hopeful, biblically grounded path toward healing. Jay explains how curiosity, honesty, community, and Spirit-led self-awareness become catalysts for real change, helping people move from behavior management to genuine wholeness and freedom.
A deep, practical, and restorative conversation for anyone wrestling with unwanted behavior, longing for healing, or seeking a richer understanding of desire, intimacy, and spiritual formation.
