Breakpoint

A Crisis of Purpose and Meaning


Listen Later

Since Great Britain seems to be a leading cultural indicator for the rest of the Western world, we should be concerned that some 90 percent of young people in Britain believe their lives have no purpose. John Stonestreet and Shane Morris discuss how in the world that the country that just a generation ago withstood the onslaught of the Nazi war machine has fallen into such a crisis of meaning.

John and Shane also discuss the massive protest in Hong Kong (and its Christian roots) as well as what John has called a human-rights crisis: A million or so frozen human embryos created through medical reproductive technology, a topic we Christians can no longer ignore.
