Beyond the Forum | You Are Not Your Own w/ Alan Noble

The Veritas Forum

This season we've asked: "What does it mean to be human?" And not too far downstream from this question is one you probably ask on a regular basis: "Who am I?"

Both questions can be overwhelming. What if your answer isn’t right? Do you even know if there is a right answer? Can you change your mind? And is there a point when you have to have it all figured out? In our final episode of the season, we address that anxiety — that burden. Perhaps “having to figure it all out” is too much pressure. What if you don’t have to come up with all the answers?

In this episode, we are going beyond the forum with Dr. Alan Noble. He’s an English professor and author, and we talk about the struggle that comes with making sense of what it means to be human. His most recent book is entitled, "You Are Not Your Own: Belonging to God in an Inhuman World."
