The Netflix series "Adolescence" has sparked heated debate, with many viewers labeling it as "woke" propaganda targeting specific demographic groups. But is this interpretation missing something profoundly important about the show's actual message?Looking beyond surface-level politics reveals that "Adolescence" is actually telling humanity's oldest story—one about our universal fallen condition. The series cleverly weaves biblical symbolism throughout, particularly through a character named Adam and references to apples, unmistakably pointing to the Garden of Eden narrative. This isn't about blaming men, any particular race, or religious group for society's problems; it's about recognizing that the capacity for moral failure exists within all of us.What makes "Adolescence" particularly striking is that while it offers truth about the human condition—how we struggle, make mistakes, and pass our wounds to subsequent generations—it provides no pathway to hope. The show accurately depicts Alexander Solzhenitsyn's observation that "the line of good and evil runs through every human heart," but stops short of offering solutions. Where Adam's disobedience led to blame, shame, and exile from paradise, Christ's perfect obedience and teachings on radical forgiveness offer the hope that "Adolescence" lacks. Rather than pointing fingers at others, we're called to take ownership of our actions while extending grace to those around us.Have you watched "Adolescence" yet? I'd love to hear your thoughts on this interpretation. And if you're curious about how Jesus Christ might offer solutions to our modern struggles with blame and shame, reach out, and let's continue this conversation.Drop us a line
