How to Be a More Hopeful Neighbor: Stop Trying to Be Alone
Description
Being alone will give you vertigo. You'll get lost in your own head and your eyes will cease to cooperate with reality's demand. You'll probably start to enjoy blurriness. Like espousing the belief that living alone is the same thing as loneliness. Or "love" is just another word for "obsession." Wake up! We were not made for individualism and the infatuation it begets.
In this tenth episode of season four, on common grace in culture, Chris and Kyle discuss Alfred Hitchcock’s film, Vertigo, and how it applies to hopeful neighboring. Believe in reality. Don't be gullible. Remember that the new heavens and the new earth will have to be populated, so don't idolize chastity or celibacy. Also—don't wander for too long. You have a home, and there are neighbors there.
