Christian Education

Christian Education – June 4, 2023 – The Rise and Triumph of the Modern Self, Part 37 June 4, 2023

The Rise and Triumph of the Modern Self: This Sunday we continued our Christian Education series for adults built around Carl Trueman’s book, “The Rise and Triumph of the Modern Self’. This week we continue tracing the history of the LGBT movement and how modern notions of the self undergird its dominant cultural power.

If you don’t have a copy of Rise and Triumph, You can buy the book here (and I encourage you to do so. If you need help, let me know) but I will teach the class in such a way that you can follow along even if you’ve never read it.

You can watch the last class here. If you’d like a brief summary of the book without having to read the whole thing, this is an excellent overview.

You can catch the class here or in the window below.

You can also follow along with Matt’s discussion notes here.
