Is religion a plague on humanity or essential for “the good life”? Yale University theologian Miroslav Volf contends that even though some kill and commit atrocities in God’s name, “attachment to God amplifies and deepens enjoyment of the world.” Volf is the director of the Yale Center for Faith and Culture and author of several books, most recently Public Faith in Action: How to Think Carefully, Engage Wisely, and Vote with Integrity and Flourishing: Why We Need Religion in a Globalized World. He’ll be joining Dr. Scot Sherman in conversation on why religion matters.
