Secular Christ | Second season
In the second season of Secular Christ, Dr. Sean J. McGrath continues his conversation about the contemplative life in a Secular Age. In our first episode McGrath introduces the concept of "Christ nature" and contrasts it with Buddha Nature before he turns to Paul and the Colossians and the Gospel of John to ground it in scripture.
In the second episode Perverse Christianity and its remedy, McGrath explores the symbolic structures that underlie our search for truth and meaning. He contrasts the "going east" with a return to the "western symbolic" in order to connect with our spiritual and religious mother tongue.
McGrath examines how 2000 years of Christianity is a part of the problem and is accelerating a perversion as well as the possible political and personal remedy, by finding back to a more authentic and contemplative Christianity.
