Living in Wonder: A Conversation with Rod Dreher
November 4th
The world is not what we think it is. It is far more mysterious, exciting, connected, and adventurous. But we have a hard time perceiving this truth because we have become "disenchanted"—closed to the idea that the universe contains the supernatural, the metaphysical, or the non-material.
Join Wayfare editor Zachary Davis for a conversation with author Rod Dreher about his new book, Living in Wonder: Finding Mystery and Meaning in a Secular Age. The book offers practical ways to regain a sense of wonder and awaken your sense of God's presence—through prayer, attention, and living by spiritual disciplines.
Questions we’ll explore include:
What does it mean to experience the world as “enchanted,” and how can we move into that mode of perception?
How is talking and thinking about God different from encountering God?
Why morals and doctrine are insufficient to revive Christianity in the West.
