About this episode
Hardship, loss, and loneliness can be doorways to finding meaning in life. According to Michael B. Beckwith, founder of the Agape International Spiritual Center, the key is asking yourself the right questions. Instead of, “What is the meaning of this suffering?” explore, “Based on this obstacle, how can I imbue my life with greater meaning?”This episode originally aired on October 15, 2019.
