Hour 1: Transhumanism and the Image of God
We're constantly invited to think about the future of technology as a progressive improvement of tools: our gadgets will continue to evolve, but we humans will stay basically the same. In the future, perhaps even alien species and intelligent robots will coexist alongside humans, who will grapple with challenges and emerge as the heroes. But the truth is that radical technological change has the power to radically shape humans as well. Our guest, a Biblical ethicist, guides us into careful consideration of the future of Christian discipleship in a disruptive technological environment. We cannot think about technology use today without considering who we will become tomorrow.
Hour 2: Healing Well & Living Free
One out of every four women in the United States will experience some form of domestic violence or abuse in her lifetime. Today our guest will use her own personal story of coming out of an abusive relationship, along with her twenty years of experience as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, as she takes us through a proven, step-by-step process for moving from victim to survivor to over-comer. With genuine empathy, she will encourage us to call it what it is, understand the mindset of the abuser, break the cycle of violence, recognize what forgiveness is and is not, and find a healthy support system. Don’t miss this important conversation.
