Faith for Give-a-shits

Repairing the world (tikkun olam) requires more than good ideas and cool theologies, it also needs spirituality, fire in the guts. Tikkun olam focuses on a reciprocal process of repairing ourselves and repairing the world. Sometimes our progressive agendas for social change etc don’t find a corresponding inner spiritual journey – so how can we better hold the two things together? Dave Tomlinson is a priest and writer whose books include The Post-Evangelical, and How to Be a Bad Christian.
