Pasta with Our Pastor: Identity in Christ & Psychological Well-Being

This thought-provoking lecture delves into the fascinating interplay between Christian and secular anthropology, exploring how each perspective shapes our understanding of human existence and purpose. Fr. Nareg highlights the profound implications of viewing humanity through the lens of being created in God's image versus a purely evolutionary standpoint. We also unpack attachment theory, examining how early relationships with caregivers influence emotional health and adult relationships, and the importance of recognizing these patterns for personal growth. Additionally, the conversation addresses the impact of trauma and the transformative journey of rewriting personal narratives to foster healing and resilience. Join us as we explore how embracing the Christian faith can provide a powerful framework for understanding identity and purpose in our lives.
