Description
<p><strong>Being Christian in a Secular Age: A Pilgrimage</strong><br>Session 4—<strong>Dispelling Disenchantment</strong><br><br>What is Disenchantment? And in our Secular Age, are we, in fact, Disenchanted, or are we simply enchanted by the story of Disenchantment?<br><br> Over the span of five videos, 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 fourth episdoe, we explore <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Myth-Disenchantment-Magic-Modernity-Sciences/dp/022640336X"><em>the Myth of Disenchantment</em></a>, to echo the title of <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Myth-Disenchantment-Magic-Modernity-Sciences/dp/022640336X">Jason Ā. Josephson-Storm's book on the subject</a>. We place Josephson-Storm's research and ideas in conversation with Charles Taylor's work in <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Secular-Age-Charles-Taylor/dp/0674986911"><em>A Secular Age</em></a> and William T. Cavanaugh's thesis in <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Myth-Religious-Violence-Ideology-Conflict/dp/0195385047"><em>The Myth of Religious Violence</em></a>.</p>
