The Slavery Of The Fear Of Death

In this episode, we begin by exploring what Ephraim Radner calls "The Great Transition" – the transition seen in the past 200 years where life expectancy has risen from 30 years old (which is what it has always been) to nearly 80 years old. We talk about the difference between "basic anxiety" and "neurotic anxiety," and the difference between "chronos time" and "kairos time." All of this will be explored in light of the claim of Hebrews 2:15 which tells us that Jesus came to "free those who all their lives were held in slavery by their fear of death."
