Wrestling with Christianity III: Unlocking Verticality & A De-centralised Network of Scenes

SENSESPACE

Continuing the series with Mahon McCann, Ken Lowry & O.G. Rose. We explore a christianity that 'goes beyond itself' and some of the dynamic tensions involved in integrating Christianity with many of us outsiders to the tradition. A unique consideration of how modern christianity 'bands off' the 'top' and 'bottom' of transcendental experience and deep suffering of collective trauma and holds us in a 'middle space'. How we might learn from Paul and early communities as a model of de-centralised scenes experimenting with different ecologies of practice in dialogue with one another. Mahon McCann is a Phd in philosophy of digital ethics. He is a playwright in Dublin and hosts both a podcast and substack exploring responses to the meaning crisis. https://www.mahonmccann.com/ Ken Lowry is an explorer and lover of the Good, the True and the Beautiful.
