The Hidden Motivations Behind Sin
From The Wise Guys Podcast · 46:42
Show by Preambula Group
Why do people sin? And how should we respond when they do? Drawing on the wisdom of St. Thomas Aquinas, we explore why no one chooses evil simply for its own sake, but often pursues what they believe to be good. We discuss the stories, wounds, and disordered desires behind our choices, the balance between justice and mercy, and why understanding someone's struggles doesn't mean excusing their sin. How can we move beyond shame and condemnation toward compassion, healing, and the transforming grace of God?
