In this course I offer a close reading of The Divine Magician. This book represents the culmination of a project I’ve been developing and deepening since How (Not) to Speak of God. It offers a radical vision of faith that critiques religion, subverts the distinctions between belief and non-belief, and presents Christianity as an incendiary counter-cultural commitment foreclosed by todays dominant sacred and secular institutions.

In this five week course I carefully work through the book, exploring the rich constellation of theories and thinkers that inform it and discussing its practical application.
