The Freedom Trap
Our freedom-charged lives offer more choice, better technology and seemingly limitless possibilities. And yet, happiness and well-being remain illusive. What if modern freedom is a trap? And if it is, what can we do to free ourselves from it? This session will explore these questions through the lens of the Christian message and offer some lifehacks for how we can reimagine and reclaim true freedom in everyday life. Bio
