Cultural Counterfeits

Confronting 5 Empty Promises of Our Age and How We Were Made for So Much More

By: Jen Oshman

Narrated by: Jen Oshman

“There really is more to this life, but it can’t be found in our own conjuring, our own identity creation and curation.”—Jen Oshman

In our search for meaning and purpose, we can be influenced by idols like outward beauty and ability, sex, abortion, and gender fluidity. Even good things like marriage and motherhood can become symbols of idolatry. We may sense that these counterfeits are hollow and leave us feeling unsettled, but where should we turn instead?

Jen Oshman equips us to reject the empty, cultural promises of our age and recognize our unshakable and eternal identities in Jesus. Addressing timely topics such as the sexual revolution, LGBTQIA+, social media, and feminism, Oshman provides compelling cultural analysis and engaging discussion questions to help us uncover God’s good design and purpose for our lives. Good news awaits—we really were made for so much more.

Worth Listening To

I found this to be well thought out and written. I think it addressed some important issues with compassion and truth.

The audio reading was well done also.

Helpful with hard subjects

Very helpful. Stayed with scripture. Would recommend to anyone but especially those searching for truth over these hard subjects of our day.
