E1 Who is Christ in today's secular world?

Secular Christ with Sean J. McGrath

In our first episode, Philosophy and Theology professor and former Catholic monk Sean J McGrath lays the foundation for our search for Christ in the secular world. Questions we will address in this podcast:

* What’s the value of individuation and Christian faith in a socio-political order which is apparently falling apart?
* How are we to understand the emptying of the western churches, while the waiting lines to therapy rooms are growing longer and longer?
* How can a cultural phenomenon such as Jordan B. Peterson best be understood today and what does it have to do with secular christ.
*Lastly, Sean also will share insights from contemplative Christianity and his years as a Catholic monk in establishing a practice that can be integrated into our secular lives of today.

McGrath discusses these themes together with Berlin based psychoanalyst Jakob Lusensky.
