Life changing

A fantastic introduction to Girards thought. It’s such a difference experience to hear him in lecture and dialogue than to merely read his words on a page. Audible please bring this back!!!! I was definitely hoping to return and re-listen.

Amazing Discussion

Amazing discussion. The audio was not that great, but considering the circumstances, that is perhaps to be expected.

An Intellectual Epiphany

Listen to this and you’ll never think about the Passion the same way again. In a way that echoes how Christ unmasks the scapegoat mechanism, Girard unmasks the philosophical and theological errors of our time.
