At 18, I was absolutely certain I had life, faith, and morality figured out.
 At 50, I know how wrong that certainty made me.

In this episode of The Mighty Philbert, I reflect on who I was at 18 — licensed into ministry, convinced of biblical inerrancy, and quick to judge — and contrast that with who I am now: more curious, more empathetic, and far less interested in being right than in reducing harm.

This isn’t a theology debate.
 It’s a Gen X reflection on certainty, indoctrination, and the long road to empathy.
