The troubling current state of world affairs and cultural discourse reveals the instability and precarity of our ability to grapple with the most difficult questions facing human life.
Today’s most prevalent accounts of human flourishing have been caught in paradigms imposed by consumer culture, redirecting interest from the transcendent God to human beings and our mundane affairs, and replacing love of God and neighbor with a self-defeating concern for our own experiential satisfaction.
Together, we must bring back our attention to exploring an understanding of our humanity and what it means to flourish. We need to challenge our personal understanding of what it means to be Godly and righteous; what it means and takes, to be as God intended us to be.
John 15:5 “Yes, I am the vine; you are the branches. Those who remain in me, and I in them, will produce much fruit. For apart from me you can do nothing."
