Mere Christianity E1 - The Law of Human Nature
Manage episode 462173684 series 3640443
Welcome to the inaugural episode of Leading Inward: The Classical Book Club! Hosts Zac Ferens, Isaiah Pullin, and Tyler Harmon introduce C.S. Lewis's Mere Christianity by discussing Chapter 1: The Law of Human Nature. The conversation ranges from an ice breaker question about personal pet peeves to a deep dive into what constitutes a 'standard' and the implications of human nature according to Lewis's theological perspectives. Key discussions include the innate sense of morality, the flaws of the 'my truth' culture, and the reasons for human deviation from God's immutable standards. The episode concludes with each host sharing relevant Bible verses to supplement the discussion.
