10 Big Ideas: Panpsychism and Incarnation December 18, 2022, at 10:00 a.m. Online and in-person Rev. Dr. Matthew Johnson
To mark my 15th year as your minister, I’m exploring 10 big ideas that are shaping my thinking. Panpsychism is the idea that everything that exists has a quality of “mind” – that in each quark there is something that thinks. Theologically, this can be connected to a deep incarnation, a sense that the holy is in all of matter and energy – an appropriate idea to consider in this season. Prepare to reconsider what you think you know.
