Zoom Link: What Do We Do With Richard Rohr? (Andy Patton)
Tonight's Friday Night Lecture from the Manor
What Do We Do With Richard Rohr?
Andy Patton, L’Abri Worker
The popular and controversial Franciscan priest and Christian mystic, Father Richard Rohr, has become an elder statesman for disenfranchised evangelicals and spiritual seekers of every stripe. He presents a version of Christianity that syncs with modern progressive values but changes the meaning of almost every central Christian teaching. His unique theological mashup of Christian elements with Buddhism, New Age thinking, and modern intuitions has proved to be a “theology for the modern era” and many people find what he has to say both attractive and personally helpful. This lecture will survey and critique both his approach to Christianity and the places where his views diverge from an orthodox understanding of the faith.
