Faith as a Countercultural Revolution in a Technological Age

What happens when we live our lives through mediating technologies? We take countless pictures but don’t look at our kids. We film vacations but are never fully present. We search for answers online but rarely puzzle over the questions. And we distract ourselves from difficult emotions, but we never take on the cross-bearing work of the soul. In the early twentieth century, French Catholic novelist Georges Bernanos worried that such a superficial existence would create little more than “stumps of men.” Join me and Christine Rosen as we explore her book The Extinction of Experience on the Evangelization & Culture Podcast.
