The Freedom of I Don't Know

Mar 1, 2026    Bill Berger

Episode #184 - The world feels unstable.


Elections, wars, markets, outrage cycles — every headline dares you to panic. And beneath the noise is a quiet assumption: it’s all on us. If we don’t control it, fix it, predict it — everything falls apart. But what if our anxiety is really a craving for omniscience? A refusal to admit we are not God? You are not sovereign over the world. You are not even sovereign over tomorrow. And that’s not terrifying — it’s freeing to say, I don’t know. Grace reminds us: history is not resting on your shoulders. So breathe. Act faithfully. Love boldly. And trust the One who actually holds the future.

James 4:13-17
