Desiring with a Disordered Affection: the Seduction of Hedonism

Hedonism encourages us to live by our appetites alone with the promise that this is the way to achieve the pleasure God made us for. The church’s enculturation means we have forgotten that Christ is our supreme good. This is part 4 of Smuggling Jesus Back into the Church, a Master Class by Andrew Fellows. At the very moment the church is becoming “worldly,” Christians are neglecting this key biblical concept. So, what is worldliness and how does it happen? In this Master Class, we diagnose the different forms of worldliness that exist today. As we highlight the dangers for the church, we examine how Christ provides the remedy.
