Infos

We are all searching for meaning and purposeIn the age where identity formation comes from what we purchase and own, people have lost touch with their authentic self. The book provides a way to find meaning and purpose through education, Biblical reference, and storytelling. The boundaries of fact and fiction are crossed by narrative and factual text, as well as story-in the form of a screenplay-which collectively provides perception and experience toward the truth of being. Jesus told stories to inform, to emphasize his points, and to provide life-changing experiences, and so it is that this method is followed in the current work. The author argues for logical reasoning and coherent research, as well as moral humans and compassionate educators, which aligns with Christian philosophy and is supported by extensive literature review and research. The work of research shifts from the brain to brain-heart connectivity and the overarching message is to seek God for direction, bear a strong moral character, and teach like Jesus.
