11/21/2021 – “12 Rules for Life List – An Antidote to Chaos” – Jordan Peterson

sorry -it’s youtube. A good discussion here might be to post a rule that you take issue with from a biblical worldview perspective. On rule #5, if Jordan and I were to have a sit down, I might find we don’t so much disagree as it is a disagreement how it is articulated. Instead of : “Don’t make your children do something that will make you dislike them.”; I would say: “Don’t .. that would grieve the Holy Spirit.” (which of course covers God’s Word and the 10 commandments.”) For questions # 11 & #12, I am more confident that my issue is restricted primarily to not resonating with the metaphor he uses in conveying the rule. You’ll know what I mean if and when you get there. I don’t think this is presented in rule priority order, most obviously starting with rule #1, although I get why it is presented. #9 – oh my, we need motivation that drives us to better listening, nowadays perhaps more than ever.

I think we could connect each of these rules with biblical lessons with references. I believe a blog discussion would indeed be fruitful.

SolI Deo Gloria!
