In this episode of the Lonergan Institute Podcast, we are joined by Lyle Enright. Lyle is an author, editor, and scholar who works in the design studio at Street Psalms, “a global network committed to developing incarnational leaders in vulnerable urban communities.” Our wide ranging discussion covers post-modern philosopher, theological questions explored in Russian literature, the kinds of self-presence people bring to social media, and how Lonergan’s thought might help people make better art, but especially to tell better stories.
A few resources Lyle mentioned:
– Recordings of Patrick Byrne’s “Insight & Beyond” course from the BC Lonergan Institute. (The eagle-eyed may be able to find a young Jonathan Heaps in these videos)
– Joseph Flanagan, S.J.’s Quest for Self-Knowledge: an Essay in Lonergan’s Philosophy
– The Realms of Desire: an Introduction to the Thought of Bernard Lonergan by the Fellows of the Woodstock Theological Center
– Hearts on Fire: Praying with the Jesuits
