This week Nick and Austin explore the idea of the “Common Man.” We dive into the work “Heretics” by G.K. Chesterton and analyze his critiques of the literary great, H.G. Wells. Can science fix our sins? What does humility look like in West Africa? What’s wrong with the world? Tune in as we explore these ideas and more…

Let's put shovel to soil and journey together to find some concrete ways to build the virtue of humility. Have a question, topic idea, gardening tip, anything? Email us at edenrevisitedpodcast@gmail.com.
