Into the Godless Place, ep. 1 in the series "The Movement's Purpose"

Season Seven begins with a question of purpose: what distinctive task might belong to the Christian Community, and how can a person or movement recognize a particular calling without confusing it with superiority? Patrick and Jonah turn to one of Rudolf Steiner’s late “Michael Letters” and a challenging picture of the modern human condition: a world that can feel emptied of immediate divine presence. What does it mean to live in that apparent distance from God? Are we tempted toward despair, toward taking the vacant throne ourselves, or toward nostalgia for an earlier spiritual consciousness? And might this very experience call human beings into a new kind of responsibility for the world around us? Ask us a question here!
