Kierkegaard: in the constant state of becoming

Tweet

I have been listening in a podcast to the story Soren Kierkegaard, a Danish philosopher in the 19th century. He was known as the father of existentialism. I have been amazed by the desultory of topics associated to this modern thinker - Fear and trembling, Abraham, faith, becoming, Socrates, Hegel. As Christians, we are in the constant state of becoming, Kierkegaard quipped. We are on a journey towards this end. Kierkegaard encouraged us not fall prey to domestication, to lowering our guards in the our quest for transcendence. Have you reached your goal already? Or do you agree with Kierkegaard that we all are in the state of becoming?
