Don't Follow Your Heart: Boldly Breaking the Ten Commandments of Self-Worship
4.70 out of 5 stars
Description
In our relentless pursuit of individuality, experiences, and desires, we're left wondering why the promise of happiness remains elusive. The mantra of modern society is to prioritize our own happiness, to look inward for guidance, and to follow the beat of our own drums. Yet, in doing so, we're met with unprecedented levels of disillusionment, isolation, and anxiety. It's a paradox that has left many of us feeling lost and unfulfilled. In Don't Follow Your Heart, Thaddeus Williams challenges the conventional wisdom of self-obsession, dismantling the "ten commandments of self-worship" that have become ingrained in our culture. These commandments, which include the likes of "#liveyourbestlife" and "#yolo," are nothing more than a rehashing of humanity's oldest lie. Williams calls upon a new generation of nonconformists to reject the status quo and seek a more meaningful existence, one that is centered on a power greater than ourselves. Through a rich tapestry of theology, philosophy, science, and pop culture, Williams points the way to a life of true fulfillment, one that is rooted in something far more interesting, satisfying, and awe-inspiring than our own fleeting desires. Featuring insightful contributions from Carl Trueman, Joni Eareckson Tada, J.P. Moreland, Josh McDowell, Alisa Childers, and others, Don't Follow Your Heart is a clarion call to rethink our values and seek a life of purpose beyond the empty promises of self-obsession. As Collin Hansen so aptly puts it, "Maybe a little heresy can do us a lot of good."
