The Re-Enchantment of the World

Recovering lost ways of reading the cosmos.
Led by Kelly Madden, Director of Keystone Symbolics – Register
We live in a “disenchanted” world—one stripped of myth, mystery, and spiritual beings, in favor of the rational, the scientific, the pragmatic. While there are benefits—we don’t hunt witches anymore—we have lost much. Christians are not immune.
-
How did it happen?
-
How does it affect Christians, even we who are committed to a biblical understanding of the world?
-
How can we learn to read the world with ancient eyes, and read our Bible as the people of God used to do?
-
Why do many observers believe that we are at an inflection point toward the “re-enchantment” of the world?
Join the conversation as Kelly Madden discusses these questions and leads us into actually practicing an ancient way of seeing and being. This is a world that God created to teach and train us, in love.
