Rooted Ep. 3 with Justin Perry

Rooted, a Lenten series, discusses what it means to be human and encounter the real. Justin Perry and Krista Corbello offer their reflections on a "new theology of the body" in reference to what it means to be human, how we relate to the increasingly digitized world, the importance for being rooted in reality, and what makes us distinct from even the most advanced technologies. In this episode, we explore the distinctly human qualities of relationships and experience, the natural tendency to anthropomorphize, the impact of experience on art or literature consumption, the dangers of digital communication, the rise of depersonalization and subsequent cybersecurity risks, the moral dilemma of technology use in war, generational perspectives on human connection, the effect of anonymity on the internet, the relationship between experience, innocence, intellectual exploration, and personal growth, the lifelong joy of discovering your own and others' humanity through incarnational experiences, and experience as the highest form of knowledge.
