On this episode of The Arc podcast, Joy and Adam interview D. A. Horton about his new Navpress book, Bound to be Free.

For years D. A. Horton struggled with childhood wounds that left him starving to earn God’s love in a kind of self-induced legalism that colored his entire existence. The pressure of his trajectory, his relationships, the desire for affirmation, and peer pressure weighed on him and never relented.
