Our knowledge comes from various sources—books that spark our imagination, powerful sermons that inspire us, class lectures that expand our horizons, and mainstream news programs that inform us. However, it's crucial to recognize that much of what we hear aligns with the agendas of those in power, shaping our perception of reality.

Mythology for a Postmodern Culture

What would our lives look like if we consider God to be nothing more than a mythological figure? The characters depicted in the Bible, the words and letters they wrote, the overarching themes conveyed in the Bible, and the compilation of books and letters are abstract, objective things that do not possess meaning? The idea of objectifying and mythologizing the truths spoken of in the Bible isn't anything new.

Personality leaks out but is not a constant. Most everyone I've ever known is in bondage to shame and emotional pain. And we never get to know the authentic self, the personality, because of it. And therefore, a relationship is rarely established with the person. This happens to most people we know. They go to the grave having no idea who they are. How sad!

The apostle John invited us to fellowship with the congregation. A call to unity with the body of Christ. He wants to share what they have seen and heard. 1 John 1:3

Even questions about who we are, what is our true self about? And why didn’t relationships work? Why were our parents so angry and controlling or sad and distant from their children? Many of us have been asking these questions since we can remember and haven’t gotten any answers.
