EP #137 - Meta-narratives, Truth, & the Human Experience, Part 2: Interview with Pastor Larry McKnight

The word, “meta-narrative”, is a fancy sounding word describing our foundational assumptions (rarely questioned) that weave into story form in our thinking. This story --and it's particular assumptions-- influence how and why each one of us see and interpret data, events, and experiences the way we do. They affect how we see God, ourselves, our relationships, and every aspect of our lives. To grow requires that we are aware that we have meta-narratives and that we are humble and open to having them challenged as Holy Spirit leads us into all Truth. Join Pastor Larry McKnight and myself for this fascinating and profound discussion. Gospel Scriptures: 1: God Chose Our Created Purpose and Destiny: Eph 1:3-14 John 1:1-3 & Col 1:15-18 Genesis 1:26-2:3 2: Darkness and Sin Opposed Our Destiny and Brought Death: Genesis 3:1-11 Rom 5:12-19 3: In Father’s Eternal Love for His Children, Jesus was His Plan of Restoration from Before Time: Isaiah 53:1-6 John 3:16-17 4: We Receive and Believe In Jesus to Be Empowered to Become the Children God Already Knows Us to Be: John 1:4-13 5: How Does A Person Receive and Believe In Jesus? 1 Jn 4:15-19 Romans 10:8-13 6: What Makes This Beautiful, Free Gift of Repentance and Restoration Possible for You Today? 2 Corinthians 5:17-21 Luke 15:10-24 Galatians 4:6 You would call Larry McKnight a happy, secure Jesus follower—this in spite of leading as a pastor and bible teacher for 40-plus years!
