The modern world has screwed us over. (Arthur Brooks)



Have you heard of Arthur Brooks? My wife suggested a podcast to me where he was a guest...Faith Matters is the podcast hosted by two LDS intellectuals. WAIT! Don't go...it's not what you think.


It's fantastic. Well, admittedly, I have only heard this episode with Arthur Brooks around the science of happiness and this one...while on the elliptical pondering my deepest emotions...is fantastic.


So, stop reading my ramblings and watch the TedX above. Or listen to it. Better yet, take a break, go walk the dog, and listen to the podcast episode on Spotify here.


One more spoiler to convince you, according to Arthur Brooks? (who, by the way, co-authored this book with Oprah Winfrey...)


The modern world has said three things to us:

  1. Love things

  2. Use people

  3. Worship yourself


Open social media and you know this to be true. We hate it, but we have been asked to accept it.


But God...God has said three things to us:

  1. Love people

  2. Use things

  3. Worship God


Six words with simple changes. Ok, now go walk the dog and listen to Arthur Brooks.
