l'Abri Saturday Morning Lecture October 7th 2023
Speaker: Mika Metz

It is not big news that most of us struggle to make decisions, whether it is big ones, like "Which Study Should I Follow", or smaller ones, like picking one option from the restaurant menu! But the time and place we live in usually adds perspectives or challenges. For example: an overload of data and options may result in a paralysis of choice. Increasing distrust in leaders, institutions and media brings more insecurity to this process. Now we also hear of a post-pandemic label for GEN-Z: "The disengaged generation".

In this lecture we will reflect on how the pandemic affected our abilities to make decisions and commit. How do fear and trust play an important role in this process? What does the bible have to say about it?
