In this first part of a conversation with Pete White, you’ll hear about the fractured understanding of the self in modern society, delving into the separation of virtue and knowledge in education and its far-reaching consequences. We discuss Freud’s tripartite theory, its inversion of our true identity and how the psychological industry suffers without a coherent worldview. Through it all, we reflect on Christ’s deepest desire to see us become our true selves so that we can bless the world.
Some helpful defitions:
Empiricism - the theory that all knowledge is derived from sense-experience.
Epistemology - the theory of knowledge, especially with regard to its methods, validity, and scope. It is the investigation of what distinguishes justified belief from opinion.
