About this listen

"The Father of Existentialism" Danish writer, poet, philosopher, and Christian thinker Soren Kierkegaard, has much to teach us about our lives. Join me weekly as we take on his writings and think about how his brilliant and profound insights illuminate our way in a complicated and confusing world. I contribute a considerable amount of my own processing of Soren’s ideas and add my own personal experiences. As Soren would wish his readers to do. This is spiritual insight and truth for the real world.Eric Bierker Ph.D. Christianity Spirituality

    Kierkegaard writes, "The world in which they crucify love and beg acquittal for a robber." The Resurrection of Jesus is both a physical reality and a spiritual necessity. For love is stronger than death.
