In this compelling episode of Love in Our Wake, hosts Jason Aitchison, Ben Teefey, and Benjamin Troup delve into the profound concept of freedom, exploring how it contrasts between cultural perceptions and Jesus’ radical example.
They examine how modern society often defines freedom as unbridled self-expression and autonomy, while Jesus redefines it as sacrificial love and servanthood.

Cultural vs. Christ-Centered Freedom: Modern culture equates freedom with self-centered autonomy, while Jesus models freedom as the ability to lay down rights and serve others.



Freedom in Action: Jesus, as the image of the invisible God, uses His divine freedom not for personal gain, but to bring dignity, healing, and liberation to others, including the oppressed and marginalized.



Idols of False Freedom: The discussion highlights how societal idols—money, power, and self-gratification—promise freedom but lead to bondage, contrasting sharply with the liberating discipleship of Jesus.



A Call to Self-Reflection: Listeners are encouraged to examine how they use their freedom and whether it aligns with Christ’s example of self-emptying love.


The episode closes by asking thought-provoking questions: How does Jesus’ use of freedom challenge us today? Are we leveraging our freedom to lift others up, or are we bound by cultural idols that distort true liberty?
