Allow The Book To Change You - Read To Discover Not Validate
11/19/24 • 5 min
Do you read to discover or read to validate? This is a question I have to ask myself. If you can't open your mind to a book, then what is the purpose of reading? True knowledge can only be found when we open our minds to the idea that our ideas or perspectives on the world may be flawed. In this video, I discuss why you should allow the book to change you and see things differently. I hope you enjoy it!

"Some Blood More Precious Must Be Paid For Man" - Paradise Lost (Books 11 & 12) CONCLUSION
Paradise Lost by John Milton is an epic poem that tells the story of the rise of Satan out of the depths of hell and his campaign to conquer the will of man on Earth. This episode covers books 11 and 12 of Paradise Lost. Join us as we witness the healing between Adam and Eve as they repent and pray for forgiveness. The Son of God hears their prayers and the angel Michael is sent down to deliver their punishment and justice. The two are humbled and kicked out of Eden but not before seeing what the earth, God created, will become because of their actions. Paradise Lost by John Milton is truly an epic poem. I hope you enjoy my explanation of Paradise Lost books 11 and 12.
