Can We Be Transformed Without Cost? The American Dream and the Suffering God

Can a Christian anthropology of suffering be translated into non-Christian language, such that that anthropology can enter public conversation NOT as specialized religious language, but as a generalized insight into human nature—an insight that leads to richer connections and more humane ways to order our common life?  

Our show pushes back against the unexamined, often unconscious ways that we frame public questions using political or economic modes of thinking. We aim to be part of a growing movement of people who are critical of the narrowness of political and economic categories, and who want to revive a vision of human flourishing that is grounded in the wisdoms of theological and moral philosophical tradition. We see these habits and ways of thinking as being pre-political, and foundational to a healthy and civil shared life in families, communities, economies, and polities.

In short, we want to foster conversations, develop habits, and create communities that are grounded in curiosity, going deep, and shining light.
