"Can We Be At Home in the Shadow of the Fall? : Reflecting on Home with the Help of Poets."

Is home a house? A family? A piece of land? A country? A language? A state of mind? A person? A church? Is God himself our home? If so, why do we so often feel some degree of existential homelessness? We will listen to voices from Christian Wiman's new anthology, Home: 100 Poems, to better understand our own and others' experiences of home and exile and consider how these diverse voices bear witness to the reality of the shadow of the Fall.
