Summary:
We are in the middle of a cultural shift: we no longer seek purpose and community within religious spaces, but rather in fitness groups, virtual game nights, book clubs, yoga studios, and other secular spaces. Yet in a climate of social isolation, how do we make the things we do every day fulfill our age-old search for meaning? This is where the ancient wisdom of ritual comes in.
