Pyroseminar | God the Master, Teacher, Analyst or Hysteric?

On the first Sunday of every month I offer a seminar that encourages people go deeper into the subversive heart of pyrotheology from the comfort of their own homes. These seminars delve into incendiary philosophical and theological ideas in an endeavor to provide some good old-fashioned intellectual stimulation. But they're also designed to penetrate our hearts and do surgery to our souls. The ideas will help us discover how we might experience a deeper, richer and more engaged form of life.

These lectures can be watched live or later via Patreon. To access this - and all other - pyroseminars, you just need to be signed up to the Flame level, or above, on Patreon.
