Episode description

In Episode 54 of Defining Truth, we dive into Chapter 10 of my book Defining Truth: Articulating America’s Worldview, unpacking how secular humanism views “sacrifice” as a means of self-advantage, versus the biblical worldview, which calls us to sacrificial love for others and an eternal focus on God’s will.

🔍 In This Episode:

We define “sacrifice” through two lenses—why self-interest is the heart of humanist sacrifice, and why Christ-centered sacrifice is other-focused and rooted in eternity.

Hear direct quotes from Chapter 10 that illustrate how worldview shapes what we’re willing to endure.

Practical takeaways for living out a sacrificial faith in today’s culture wars.

📖 Key Quotes:

“Sacrifice can only be understood when viewed through the lens of one’s worldview…No one willingly dies for something they don’t believe.”

“Good is worth dying for if it furthers defeating evil and standing for truth.”
