Dr Greg Bottaro is convinced that mental, spiritual, and emotional health are all attainable, but not through secular therapy OR mainstream spiritual advice on the internet. Rather, he believes the key comes from a book written in 1960, and this book holds the answer that every Christian (and human!) needs to hear.
