093 Why You Haven't Given Up on the Soul If Speaking About the Brain (Jim Wilder)
Manage episode 441657246 series 2916690
Everyone is talking about slowing down, slow food, a slow life. I have friends who host the “Slow Theology” podcast.
But is going slow the best to understand the SOUL? (What does that even mean?)
Recently, people like Jim Wilder have been specifically accused to talking too much about the brain, and not even about the soul. So much so that some believe Jim doesn't even believe in the soul.
(And Jim is a speaker at the Attaching to God Summit, talking about "Empathy, Enemy Mode, and Engaging Gen Z"...so register for free).
We have a long conversation, attempting to set the record straight about an overly philosophical-cognitivist view of the soul (the slow soul), and how that view needs to catch up to all the really fast things God has enabled us to do—brain, body, and soul.
We also talk about how broad and wide the field of neuroscience is, the streams that we pull from (which aren't nearly as reductionistic as some), and how the Bible uses many terms to discuss the spiritual part of us.
Resources: Check Jim's New Growing a More Human Community (3-book series)
