Friends, We might not feel up to the task, of changing the world, but not only are we up to the task, but we are all engaged with it already.

No one who has ever lived, even briefly, has not altered the earth by contributing their own destiny to it, and the way in which that destiny radiated out to affect everyone.

Shaping the world is part of being alive.

We all contribute. This is often broken down into a clunky simplistic and fundamentally flawed statement that “everything is political.” But the truth is everything in our lives - individually, with each other, and with the whole of humanity not to mention the earth itself - is connected to natural, human, and spiritual laws.

How do we bring ourselves out of the automatic everyday ways we shape the world just by merely existing, and into the intentional, purposeful, and true activity of developing a newly spiritual society?

Welcome to my new series of episodes on how to start to renew and recreate the social world in our time:

A NEW SPIRITUAL SOCIETY

Over the coming episodes, I'll be looking into the spiritual heart of culture, politics, and economics, to see what's living there, and how we can bring ourselves to the task of nourishing it.

With Rudolf Steiner's concept of social threefolding as a companion along the way, we'll move past old ideas and into essential, living concepts to move forward.

On this first episode, I introduce what I'm up to, define the terms, set the direction, and invite you along.
