Book Description
In 2021, psychology professor and atheist Niki Harré spent a year as a self-appointed secular priest. She attended church, immersed herself in Christian writing created bespoke vows, and delivered regular Sunday services.
It didn’ t go as planned. Her secular friends largely stayed away. She formed new relationships. And she slowly developed a sense of what it means to regularly turn towards humility, the unknown, reflection, listening to and caring for the other, and an awareness of the world as it is rather than as we wish it was: qualities of a religious orientation as she experienced it.
The Calling details Niki Harré ’ s year as a priest without God. A year does not last forever, but it is long enough to gain a sense of what it is to see and live in the world differently from the way one did before.
