Friends, what do FBI hostage negotiators have in common with Instagram, Netflix, and Spotify/Apple algorithms? Well, uncomfortably, they may know us better than we know ourselves. Which tells us something important about human nature.


This Sunday, we’re continuing our Anthropology series by poking at a story many of us are quietly living inside: the idea that with the right hacks, tools, and techniques, we should be able to optimize our way out of our weaknesses and limitations. So, we’ll talk about predictability, partial sight, regret, exhaustion, and why some of the most ordinary moments of modern life can be surprisingly revealing.

Along the way, we’ll explore why Jesus seems remarkably unbothered by blurry vision, why limitation isn’t a moral failure, and why faith might have less to do with clarity and more to do with humility, community, and grace.
