The University of Edinburgh | Prof Michael Welker: The Human Spirit and the Divine Spirit @EdinburghUniversity | Uploaded October 2019 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
Professor Michael Welker, Senior Professor at the University of Heidelberg and Director of FIIT, delivers the Gifford Lecture "The Human Spirit and the Divine Spirit”. It is the second lecture in the series " In God’s Image: Anthropology".
Lecture abstract: Rather than conceive the spirit in an intellectual fashion—as consciousness, intelligence, rationality, and such bipolar notions as body-soul or body-spirit—we should understand both the human and the divine spirit in a multipolar and multimodal fashion. Only then do the full reality and creativity of the spirit become apparent, illuminating the challenges to which human beings are called today.
