On February 18, Trinity Cathedral Insights presented Diana Butler Bass, the author of nine books on American religion, including Christianity After Religion, Christianity for the Rest of Us, and A People's History of Christianity. She holds a Ph.D. in religious studies from Duke University, has taught at the college and graduate level, and is currently an independent scholar. She was a columnist for The New York Times and writes for The Huffington Post and The Washington Post on issues of religion, spirituality, and culture.
Every year, more Americans leave organized religion behind as people disaffiliate and the nation becomes more religiously diverse. Grounded explores this cultural turn as Bass unpacks how people are finding new spiritual ground through a God who resides in the world with us - in the soil, the water, the sky, in our homes and neighborhoods, and in the global commons. People are connecting with God through the environment in which we live. Grounded guides readers through our contemporary spiritual habitat by paying attention to the ways in which people experience a God who animates creation and community.
The book study is free.
