“We can do nothing more important than to wrestle with the purpose of our lives.”

Is there an uncomfortable stirring in your soul that says, “There must be more to life?” Do you believe you are here for a much greater purpose than what your life has produced thus far? Does it feel as if most of your life has been wasted, haunting you from the rear-view mirror? If you’re feeling aimless and adrift, you are not alone. Recent studies show that more than ninety percent of people today are experiencing “purpose anxiety”—a frustrating, and at times, depressing struggle to find their life’s meaning.

Modern Man’s Search for Meaning examines twentieth-century insights on the meaning of life through the teachings of psychologists Frankl, Adler, Jung, and Freud, and contrasts those views through a biblical lens, which shows that our life purposes and missions are, in fact, uniquely designed by God.

Containing historical references and personal stories, Modern Man’s Search for Meaning plots the course and shares the formula for finding your purpose in life that, once discovered, can be lived out in a way that will give your life the direction and fulfillment you’ve been searching for. The answers in this life-changing narrative are truly the antidote to meaninglessness.
