There’s more to life than the world we can see. Re-Enchanting is a podcast from Seen & Unseen recorded at Lambeth Palace Library, the home of the Centre for Cultural Witness. Justin Brierley and Belle Tindall engage faith and spirituality with leading figures in science, history, politics, art and education. Can our culture be re-enchanted by the vision of Christianity?

I'm a huge fan of Vishal 's The Book that Made Your World. I have recommended it to everyone I know. I think I've read everything available of his.

Brilliant, thanks heaps for this interview. Many need to hear this and the other interviews you Belle and Justin publish. Keep at it and don't despise small beginnings.

Very intresting, Judaism and Christianity have very much contribute to development of the world, and that has almost been forgotten all around.

[@groundzero5708]

in judaism ,most of the things can be credited to old testament which both jews and chrstians

[@ManuGeorge777]

All the contributions of the Church are forgotten thanks to the rise of the evil dispensationalism-doomsday teachings.

In humans, the voice of conscience is based on the possibility that the soul is immortal, but it can settle in a new organism when life in the current organism ends. A person's experience of their current life is fragile and fades over time. This is proof that we have already been able to live and exist as souls. This also applies to the future and creates a voice of conscience in us. This voice will be silenced at the latest when we die. Before that, you can try to silence it with the help of religion.

Every good thing had come from the Bible

The Bible - authored by God and written by the power of the Holy Spirit. Nothing EVER will come close.... 🙏🙌💯💯💯💯

Dear Mr. Vishal, why did you say at 21:35 that Adler converted to Episcopalianism which his wife was, but failed to mention he eventually was received into the Catholic Church? Further, why did you say at 21:55 that Adler worked with William James who died in 1910 and was never associated with the school (he was associated with Harvard and had nothing to do with a Great Books program or anything of that sort)? Further, Alan Bloom was no real friend of Christianity.

Thanks for the corrections. Hope Vishal Mangalwadi reads your comment.
