Description
An increasing number of individuals in Western culture face a crisis in self-esteem, for all the theoretical talk of "human rights." The Christian tradition has a distinctive contribution to make on the subject of human worth. This lecture will explore the letters of Paul and the practices of the earliest Christian communities to unearth the powerful dynamic of gift (grace) in giving humans worth. You are worth it, but not because an advertisement tells you so!
