In this episode, British sociologist Linda Woodhead joins Lisa Bay and Laura Kuhn to discuss her article Spirituality and Christianity: an entangled relationship (or, how the marginal became mainstream). She explains how spirituality has evolved from a marginalized position to becoming mainstream in today’s western world, and how this impacts Christianity. Learn more about how colonial structures have fuelled the spread of spirituality in the global west and about the subversive feminist power it holds.
Linda Woodhead is professor and head of department of theology and religious studies at King’s College London. She is a sociologist of religion whose books and articles explore the decline of churches, the rise of spirituality and of nonreligion, and the values and beliefs of Gen Z.
