Hunger for Wholeness
Story matters. Our lives are shaped around immersive, powerful stories that thrive at the heart of our religious traditions, scientific inquiries, and cultural landscapes. As Bertrand Russell and Albert Einstein claimed, science without religion is lame and religion without science is blind. This podcast will hear from speakers in interdisciplinary fields of science and religion who are finding answers for how to live wholistic lives. This podcast is made possible by funding from the Fetzer Institute. We are very grateful for their generosity and support.

Hunger for Wholeness
How Can Climate Change Create Us? with Catherine Keller (Part 2)
In this Part 2 episode Hosts, Ilia Delio and Gabby Sloan interview Teacher, Author, Activist, Catherine Keller as they discuss the following themes:
- What story pulls us onward and gives us something to live for?
- How do we encounter that we are a planetary species? What does this mean for how we live
- Humility and the apophatic tradition: we cannot know an infinite God. In humility, we recognize that any idea of deeper “truth” is beyond us
