The worlds vision of the good life: Our

Jesus’ vision of the good life:

Independence to Dependence

Jesus paints the picture of the good life as a life of dependence. Dependence, not in general, but upon Jesus.

To Interdependence

Interdependence is a life where you dependent on others and others are dependent on you.

Jesus points to the good life as a life full of meaning. He does not point us toward an easy life, but it is a good life.

A good life is a life full of Interdependent relationships.
