Episode Synopsis

In this episode of the Rooted Conference podcast, Vanderbilt professor of history and religion Paul Lim speaks about how to engage teenagers in an era dominated by shifting philosophies. He says our kids are growing up in an "achievement society" determined to "discard negativity," and the impact of our devices reinforces these trends. "I need to actually worry less about the perception of the other and move and remind myself about the perfection of the Other, namely, God himself in Jesus Christ."Resources:The Burnout Society by Byung-Chul Han Power Failure by Albert BorgmannThe Social Dilemma documentary (also see our podcast)
