Today I join my dad over coffee to discuss The Four Temperaments, Maslow‘s Hierarchy of Needs, and what ‘Good’ actually means in hopes that we might better understand who we are, why we can’t seem to change, and what it is that we should be aiming at.

“The meaning of life is to alleviate unnecessary suffering.” -Jordan Peterson

Today my new friend Peter Keller joins me for a wide ranging discussion on everything from our current YouTube obsessions, missionaries and capitalism, Legalism and art, and all things faith.

Whatever you’re dealing with today, I hope this keeps you company.

For months I’ve pondered this question:

What is it about the way we live today that creates the necessity for many to ask questions as basic as, “am I really male?”

What unnoticed patterns contribute to our dislocation? And where do we go from here?

Steven Furtick is getting pwned after his silly comment the other day. I’m no theology expert so I thought we’d look at his comment from a different angle… forget moral, does a self centered religion even do the one thing it promises? (Namely, Make you happy)?
