Lifelong Flourishing: Surprising Wisdom from Scripture and Science from Regent Audio on Vimeo.

Human beings long to flourish, to experience personal wellbeing and fruitfulness that makes a difference in the world. The Bible, as it turns out, has much to say about flourishing. So does scientific research that focuses on human health and behavior. What we learn about flourishing from Scripture and science is sometimes surprising and unexpectedly convergent. This lecture examines how biblical theology and scholarly research commend practices that promote lifelong flourishing.
