Episode Overview
- Humanity's broken condition is explored through Romans chapter 1.
- Modern society's loss of appreciation for nature is linked to the suppression of God.

Once mankind suppresses God, then comes ingratitude, and following ingratitude is resentment.
In this episode of 'How it Happens with Colin Cook', Colin dives deep into Romans chapter 1, exploring the often-overlooked theme of humanity's broken condition and the suppression of divine truth. Through a blend of biblical references and personal anecdotes, Colin discusses how modern society has lost its appreciation for the beauty and gifts of nature, attributing this loss to a broader suppression of God.
He shares an engaging story about a young man who realised he had no one to thank for a beautiful sunset, highlighting the importance of recognising and appreciating the divine in everyday life. Colin also touches on the sensory pleasures of food and how even these are gifts from God that we often take for granted.
By examining the consequences of this suppression—ranging from ingratitude to resentment and even violence—he underscores the importance of rekindling our gratitude and appreciation for God's creation. The episode is a heartfelt reminder that acknowledging and thanking God can bring joy and peace, even in challenging times. If you're looking for a thoughtful discussion on faith, gratitude, and the beauty of creation, this episode is a must-listen.
