Being Christian in a Secular Age: A Pilgrimage
Session 3: Out-narrating the Secular Stories
Can we tell a better story than the secularization narrative?
Over the span of five discussions, I'm joined by the Rev'd Justin McIntosh, Rector of St Paul's Episcopal Church in Ivy, Virginia to discuss Being a Christian in a Secular Age. In this third episode, we turn a critical eye toward the Master Narratives that underwrite the Social Imaginary of our modern, Secular Age and offer a different, more complex and nuanced story of our history. In this alternative (and more accurate) story, the Church and Christian faith are not a relic blocking the way of progress but, more often than not, an impetus for and an engine of human flourishing throughout the ages. For it is this same Christian faith that has inspired the greatest philosophers, artists, theologians, musicians, scholars, and scientists of history.
