This Week on Speaking Of Faith

The Freelance Monotheism of Karen Armstrong

Karen Armstrong speaks about her progression from a disillusioned and damaged young nun into, in her words, a "freelance monotheist." She's a formidable thinker and scholar, but as a theologian she calls herself an amateur - noting that the Latin root of the word "amateur" means a love of one's subject. Seven years in a strict religious order nearly snuffed our her ability to think about faith at all. Here, we hear the story behind Armstrong's developing ideas about God.

Speaking Of Faith, Sundays from 7:00 AM to 8:00 AM on WUSF 89.7(2), your NPR Station.


Show Description and Host Information

Krista Tippett

Speaking of Faith, hosted by Krista Tippett, is public radio's weekly national conversation about belief, meaning, ethics and ideas. Speaking of Faith does not always have "religion" itself as a subject. Week after week, it grapples with themes of American life — asking how perspectives of faith might distinctively inform and illuminate our public reflection.
