In this deeply reflective episode, Dr. John Patrick explores how screen addiction and modern distractions prevent teenagers from engaging with life's most important questions. Drawing from Easter Monday conversations with his grandchildren and insights from Matthew Crawford's article on mass migration, he examines how family dinner discussions and cultural narratives shape young minds. Dr. Patrick discusses the breakdown of Western hospitality traditions, the rise of nominal Christianity, and the urgent need for families to reclaim the dining room table as a place for serious intellectual and spiritual formation.
