19: In All Our Inadequacies

Finding God at Work · Jun 26, 2025 · 19m · transcript

We don't just need good teachings or ideas about human nature and mental health.

We need a vision of human life and love and work as it's meant to be.

When we let Jesus be our anthropologist, we learn his teachings on the human person.

But Jesus is more than that. He's also the true anthropos: the true human being.

He shows us the life we were meant for, and he invites us into it.
