#111 Finding Your True Purpose In a World of Confusion | Co-Host Jimi Allen

Jimi Allen of TalkLab joins Joel Settecase for a biblical worldview and philosophy discussion on the concept of self-identity. Explore the impact of societal labels, the role of faith in understanding the self, and the historical influence of Christianity on the notion of individuality. The discussion further addresses Francis Schaeffer's idea of the importance of having an ultimate reference point in God and how contemporary tools like social media influence our self-perception and orientation. Views on knowledge of self versus knowledge of God, the metaphor of the 'Word' in ancient and modern context, and the role of missionaries in shaping literate societies are also explored.Men, get real accountability and knowledge to help you become the worldview leader your family and church need.
