Come and join the Theos team for two events with renowned philosopher and theologian James K. A. Smith in January 2014. Looking at three of his areas of expertise, Christian formation, secularism and postmodernity, this is a rare opportunity to engage in person with the author of Teaching and Christian Practices: Reshaping Faith and Learning, and Imagining the Kingdom: How Worship Works, and Introducing Radical Orthodoxy: Mapping a Post-secular Theology.

These events are open to all, so please circulate this invitation to friends and colleagues.

Details and booking information below.  In order to cover costs, we are charging a small entry fee of £8 for each event.

Event 2: The Secular is Haunted
6.30pm-8.30pm at Central Hall, Westminster
Drinks reception on arrival.  Lecture will start at 7.15pm.
Why our world is more complicated than the new atheists would have you believe.
If we are "secular"  does that mean we no longer believe?  Is a "secular" age synonymous with atheism?  Does the loss of transcendence mean we are left in a flattened, "rational" world?  In this talk, drawing on philosophy, literature, and poetry, as well as his upcoming book on Charles Taylor, James K.A. Smith will offer a very different account of our "secular" age - not as non-religious or atheistic, but as an age of believing otherwise.
