Andrew Root returns to the podcast for a fascinating conversation about the work of German sociologist Hartmut Rosa. We explore Rosa's insights on the acceleration of modern life and how it shapes our world, creating challenges and opportunities for faith leaders. The discussion investigates Rosa's concept of "resonance," a vital counterpoint to the relentless pace of modernity, offering a deeper understanding of how faith can foster meaningful connections in an increasingly fast-paced society. If you enjoy this conversation, you should join us with Hartmut Rosa, in-person or online, for the upcoming event, The Church, The Pastor, And Resonance In An Accelerated Age. It will surely be an essential gathering for anyone interested in the intersection of modernity, sociology, and spirituality. The event will take place at Princeton Theological Seminary and include a host of spectacular theologians in conversation with Hartmut Rosa, including previous podcast guests John Swinton, Miroslav Volf, and Gerardo Marti. On Monday night, there will also be a live podcast! If you can’t join in person, you can grab a digital ticket for just $7.50! This includes both access to the event live and the recorded archive :) WATCH the conversation on YouTube The Church, The Pastor, And Resonance In An Accelerated Age Theological Conversations With Hartmut Rosa September 23–24, 2024 · Hybrid Conference · Stuart Hall, Princeton Theological Seminary In a partnership between Luther Seminary and the Aberdeen Centre for Protestant Theology at the University of Aberdeen, the Center for Barth Studies at Princeton Theological Seminary would like to invite you to a conference honoring the work of eminent philosopher Harmut Rosa in the fall of 2024 at Princeton Theological Seminary in Princeton, New Jersey.
