In this episode, we will unpack what Genesis 3 has to tell us about ourselves: that there are three universal laws of human nature that regulate a person's self-opinion. Know the laws and know yourself, know the laws and know others, but most importantly, know the laws and how they direct us all to Chri...

The world has been disrupted on many different levels and it would seem as if many different things are collapsing simultaneously. But, what if there was a big, central narrative that animated all the diverse and chaotic smaller narratives? What if I told you nearly 100 years ago,...
