Gardens of Love and Digital Dopamine, with Matthew LaPine

  • Résumé

  • How might we be misunderstanding anxiety and mental health? Is it really an addiction crisis rather than a mental health crisis?


    This episode is a far-ranging conversation with WWJT co-host Andrew Noble (PhD Candidate, Nottingham University) and Matthew LaPine, author of The Logic of the Body (PhD from Trinity Evangelical Divinity School). We dive into different visions for viewing human persons, how science might inform our understanding, and Matt's own growth and challenges amidst his work.
