Ep. 102: Should I seek happiness?

In this episode of Focused on Christ, Pastors Mike and Nathan explore eight humanistic errors that have subtly infiltrated the church, impacting faith and community. Continuing a conversation from the previous episode, they examine the concept of individual autonomy, highlighting its potential to lead to moral decay and a life devoid of true spiritual guidance. They also addresses the flawed idea of being 'spiritual but not religious,' emphasizing the biblical importance of community for mutual support and growth. Furthermore, they contrasts the pursuit of happiness with the pursuit of holiness, explaining that true joy is a byproduct of a holy life and a relationship with God. Lastly, they clarify the Christian perspective on enlightenment and truth, asserting that Christians are not anti-science and that truth is revealed through Scripture and the natural world.
