Ours is a time of unprecedented pessimism regarding the possibility
of achieving consensus around moral issues. Christian liturgical
practices, which are grounded in a communicative economy of love
and mercy, contain wisdom that might be of significant help. What
difference might it make if we confessed sin (learned epistemic
humility, worked at overcoming self-deception), interceded for
others (learned to go beyond empathy to compassion and advocacy for
the well-being of all persons, became willing to look beyond the
possible for solutions, etc.), and learned from the best
homiletical practices how to justify and apply moral positions
within an ethic of hospitality and care? Speaking Together focuses
on the roles that liturgical practices play in promoting genuinely
communicative (understanding-oriented) forms of action and explores
how liturgical practices contribute to sincere, multi-perspectival,
empathetic, and truth-seeking conversations regarding moral norms
in an increasingly pluralistic world. What this means is that our
liturgical practices are a way of speaking together and this shapes
how we organize and inhabit a shared social life.
