“We are…Whole” - Episode 6 in the series, "Identity and Idolatry"

In this sixth episode of our series, Jonah and Patrick explore the interplay between icons and idols, working together in the formation of identity. We, developing human beings, are free to choose what we love and strive to become. Idols are necessary for our freedom and the schooling of a mature love, one that has been tested. This is where Christ comes in and how he approaches us—as a true icon. He is the image and expression of the True Human Being. The Gospel, with all its many characters and drama, can reveal who we are in relation to Jesus Christ, the True Human Being. The Gospel can then reveal the story of our own becoming, a blueprint or map guiding us into wholeness through Him.
