A philosopher by the name of Viktor Frankl, once said, "When a person can't find a deep sense of meaning, they distract themselves with pleasure." That statement resonates deeply in our current culture. With the decline of communal and family values, morals and a deep sense of community has been eradicated from our society. Beyond that, Carl Trueman, a religious theologian, once coined the phrase, "expressive individualism", which means an absurd, obsessive, and narcissistic approach to life, in which one comes to think that the world revolves around them. This is a problematic approach to life because no one exists by themselves nor exists for themselves. The Christian approach believes that life is best lived when we "Glorify God and enjoy Him forevermore." Finding life in Christ gives us our true purpose. In this episode, we unpack what it means to find your purpose and use three real-life people to help us along the way. We hope you enjoy it!
