After Unbundling: How We Rebuild Community with Casper ter Kuile

Igniting Imagination

How do we rebuild deep belonging in an age of fragmentation?

In this episode of Igniting Imagination, Casper ter Kuile, Co-Founder and Principal of Sacred Design Lab, Rev. Lisa Greenwood, and Rev. Dr. Gil Rendle invite us to rethink how meaning, connection, and spirituality take shape in modern life. Drawing from Gil’s monograph Reimagining and Remapping the Religious Landscape, Casper explores how spiritual practices are being “unbundled” from institutions and “rebundled” into new forms of community, in homes, workplaces, and online spaces.

Perhaps the work of spiritual leadership today is not to preserve what was, but to imagine what might yet become.
