What does it mean for a life to go well? What matters most in our time on Earth?
These are the most important questions of our lives and yet most of us have no clue how to answer them.
Miroslav Volf is a theologian and professor who has been grappling with these ideas for decades. He is the founding director of the Yale Center for Faith and Culture where he teaches a class called “Life Worth Living,” and recently wrote a book by the same name.
It turns out, life worth living is life helping others.
This is…A Bit of Optimism.

Hi listeners! We're taking some time off to bring you even more episodes of A Bit of Optimism that you're going to love! We'll be back from hiatus on June 3.
The future is always bright…if you know where to look. Join me each week for A Bit of Optimism! I talk to inspiring people who teach me more about life, leadership and general interesting things.
