I’ve been to the English L’Abri community a few times, and L’Abri has really helped me in thinking through different aspects of my faith. Back at their film festival in 2008, I heard that they were planning to put their vast library of talks online soon. Over a year later, the L’Abri Ideas Library is now live!
The site contains hundreds of talks from a Christian perspective on all sorts of subjects and topics, from the Bible to Buddhism, epistemology to ecology, theology to theatre. Here are some of the categories:
- What in the world is real?
- Has anyone spoken?
- What does it mean to be human?
- What is spiritual reality?
- How shall we then live?
It’ll certainly give me plenty of interesting and thoughtful material to listen to on my mp3 player! The talks include many by Francis Schaeffer, the Christian pastor and thinker who founded L’Abri and who wrote many interesting books of apologetics. Whatever you’re interested in, there’s a good chance you’ll find a talk to interest you on the site, so I thoroughly recommend you check it out!
