Secular Man

At the heart of society’s troubles lies a problem in the way people view themselves and their fellow humans. 

Secular man tends to be viewed in extreme ways — ranging from being a ‘god’ to being ‘nothing’ — and everything in between, including: freak, consumer, zombie, robot or just a pile of data. The good news is there’s more to the story of ‘man’.

Society can’t begin to be healthy if people don’t have a coherent and correct understanding of who they are — their smallness and their greatness, what they are and what they are called to be.
