270. Recovering the Depth of Experience in a Flattened World- Radically Personal (FULL)

Описание: What do we mean by “human experience”?

In Episode 270 of God: An Autobiography, The Podcast, Jerry Martin continues the Radically Personal series by examining how we actually encounter the world.

Modern philosophy and science often describe experience in terms of sensations, data, or brain processes. Jerry asks whether that account leaves something essential out. Drawing on thinkers such as William James, Maurice Merleau-Ponty, Hilary Putnam, Martin Buber, and Edith Stein, he reflects on perception, embodiment, aesthetic experience, empathy, and love.

The episode traces a movement from perception to relationship to meaning, exploring the idea that depth belongs to experience as lived. Taking that depth seriously reshapes how we think about reality and the possibility of the divine.
