Listen "Understanding Agency: How God Wants Us to Choose Our Future Self with Terryl Givens"
Episode Synopsis
You've heard the phrase "you do you." Now, author Terryl Givens points out that Latter-day Saint theology on Agency elevates our thinking to something like the phrase "you choose you." This discussion is an invitation to consider deeply how we are empowered in Gods plan to make choices that make us very individual, move us forward in everyday life and over time, lift us to a higher version of ourselves. Terryl's book Agency: Themes in the Doctrine and Covenants illuminates the ways we choose and use God's great gift of agency. He is a senior research fellow at the Maxwell Institute and an accomplished author of many books. Terryl shares that at the center of this pursuit of agency is Christ's love.
