Stoicism and Jesus Christ [Ep.99]

#philosophy #stoicism #mindset #strong #motivation #ryanholiday #taylorswift #drake #joerogan #joeroganexperience #marcusaureliusquotes

With Andrew Tate, Ryan Holiday, Matthew McConaughey, and Joe Rogan promoting Marcus Aurelius and the Stoic way of life, Logos felt the need to dive into the conversation. Per-usual, philosophical discourse motivates this conversation, yet we bring it into communion with the great gift God has given man to encounter Him, namely the Gospel.  

As a part of this conversation, we will define stoicism, its ethical, epistemological, and theological implications, and their relationship to the Gospel. Buckle in, you are in for a philosophical, yet fascinating ride down "Ponder Avenue" on "Joey and Max Blvd" destined for the Jesus Christ. Did I draw this analogy out too long? I did, didn't I?  

Anyways, enjoy the show and God bless!
