Go Easy On Me? Adele's Quest for Persona...

ASCENSION
About this episode

What does it mean to be true to yourself? Dr. Sri unpacks Adele's new hit song, Easy On Me, and explains how this popular song expresses an inverted definition of personal happiness. Although we are all tempted to find happiness within our own feelings, Dr. Sri reminds us that true happiness is found when we live for God and for others.

Snippet from the Show

"We find our identity and purpose not in an inward quest of our own feelings, but rather in an outward quest that leads us to love God and those he has placed right in front of us."
