Why is it that as human beings we so often see our limits as the enemy of the good life, and not as a helpful frame? Whether we’re chafing against 24-hour days, the betrayals of our bodies, our inevitable mortality, or the caps on our relational and psychological energy, it just seems like modern life tempts us to believe that finitude is a weakness to be overcome … perhaps even a sin. But what if that’s entirely wrong? Kelly Kapic is a theologian and the author of You’re Only Human: How Your Limits Reflect God’s Design and Why That’s Good News. He joins Anne today to gently correct (and even heal!) the disorder of our weary self-flagellation.
