Swiss L'Abri

This week we are pulling out a lecture that was given last summer by one of our guest lecturers, Dr. John Marriott. Professor Marriott teaches at Biola University and has done some very interesting work on the sociology of religion. This lecture addresses what he has discovered through studying the reasons people have left the Christian faith. For more info about Dr. Marriott and his work check out his website https://www.johnmarriott.org/.

Why are we so bored? What does this mean for us  spiritually?  How do we respond to boredom and where does it come from? 

In this lecture we begin to try to grapple with answers to these questions.

Lecture on authenticity and self-expression in dialog with the ideas of the Canadian philosopher Charles Taylor.
