The Quest for Meaning in Secular Life
This chapter investigates how individuals derive meaning and purpose through secular avenues, such as sports and politics, while referencing Robert Keegan's insights into human meaning-making. It emphasizes the critical role of storytelling in navigating existential questions and the search for coherence in experiences, particularly in the context of suffering. Furthermore, it critiques secular substitute narratives and advocates for a return to transcendent narratives to fulfill deep human longings for meaning.
