The Heidelberg Catechism tells us that our only comfort in life and death is that we belong to our faithful Savior Jesus Christ, but for many people in the modern West, this seems like a false comfort designed to keep us in chains. In his new book, You Are Not Your Own, Dr. Alan Noble argues that the false promises of self-belonging have left us with a world that is inhuman: obsessed with efficiency, built upon self-promotion, and unable to offer hope for eternity. He offers some correctives to popular societal maxims and points us to the hope that is found in Christ. Also in this episode: Listen to the very end to hear us get confused about one of Tim Keller's degrees.
