My Sunday video is live — the second installment in my Christianity for Doubters series. In this episode I lay out the premise that there are hidden and mostly inaccessible parts of ourselves that only psychological technologies like religion can reach. From there I explain how Christianity’s unique symbol is part of what makes it such a powerful psychotechnology and wrap up with a definition of “wisdom.”
DID YOU KNOW that I run a Christian meetup in Richmond VA? If you’re not local you can still CLICK HERE to receive meditations, reading suggestions, Biblical reflections, etc.

Fascinating as always. I really like the point about how restriction breeds creativity. Back in my days of teaching English literature I always had students in my classes try their hands at writing sonnets. Many grumbled at first about having to work in a set form . . . only to say afterward that it proved surprisingly liberating, as in: “The rhyme scheme took my mind in directions I hadn’t planned and wouldn’t have come up with on my own.”
Thanks James, glad you liked it. Stay tuned. I have some really powerful stuff in store in the coming installments — I hope to blow your mind if I can!
