Episode 7: Values
In this seventh episode, Dr. Knabb discusses an often overlooked topic in contemporary Western society: values. What will guide our life? Wavering, impermanent thoughts and feelings or a more stable set of principles for living? To begin, an exploration of values is offered, before turning to biblical virtues in the Bible. Through the episode, both a psychological and Christian understanding are provided, along with a 10-minute meditative exercise on the fruit of the Spirit as a strategy for Christians to follow Jesus with a set of moral behaviors to guide life.
