Inquisitions and Hopeful Theology; A Conversation About Ivan Illich with David Goa

<p>In 2021, a book by Canadian writer and broadcaster David Cayley was published. The book was a biography of Ivan Illich who, in the 1970’s, became quite well known for his criticism of the church, and for institutions of education and medicine.</p> <p> </p> <p>We find Ivan Illich compelling because he speaks about faith and society in ways that can shape and inform hopeful theology. If you have pushed away from rigid examples of religion, you will likely find many of Illich’s ideas helpful.</p> <p> </p> <p>In this episode we talk about <a href='https://www.psupress.org/books/titles/978-0-271-08812-9.html'>Cayley’s book</a> and about Illich with our friend and Orthodox theologian David Goa.</p> <p> </p> <p>Note – You may find some language in this episode offensive. Hopefully not much, but maybe a little.</p>
