What the Secular World can learn from Religion

Share this page...

Niki Harré talks about her year as a self-appointed secular priest. She undertook three vows – simplicity, hospitality and pause, offered weekly services and personal conversations, and attended a Christian church. While she experienced considerable resistance, she also learnt a great deal about humility, listening to and caring for the other, and an awareness of the world as it is, rather than as we wish it was.

Meditation / Conversation starter

  • Is there something missing in the secular world?
  • What is it?

Discussion ‘rules’:

  • Keep your comments brief
  • Ensure everyone has a turn (or passes)
  • Listen, but do not comment (you can affirm with a very brief comment during your own speaking time)
  • You can add a further comment if everyone has had their turn to speak
