This episode asks what is important in life and challenges our assumptions. We all hold assumptions about life that we may not even be aware of, but they direct our choices of career, lifestyle, relationships, parenting philosophy and so on. Unfortunately, we may wake up in our 50s and realize those assumptions – held by the majority – have let us down and the consequence is an unfulfilled, possibly lonely life, with a sense of loss and regret for what might have been. Now is the time to reflect on and challenge our assumptions. Is life all about me? Is life all about making money? Is a focus on relationship something that can wait till I’ve “made it”? What “making it” is really all about requires good character, replacing the prevailing worldview around me with one that reflects God’s perspective, and fulfilling his purpose for me.
