Emergence is one of the most important concepts in the sciences, both natural and social. I have also found it to be fruitful in engaging with questions relating to theology and mission.
Tonight I am giving a talk on the subject for a session of the Write conference of The Simeon Network. It was canceled earlier this year and is now being held online.
Here is the current version of the slides.
A gentle introduction is in a short article I wrote for Test of Faith.
A longer academic article is Emergence, reductionism and the stratification of reality in science and theology.
Last year I wrote a blog post about Emergence of Sin by Matthew Croasmun. A helpful review is at Marginalia: LA Review of Books.
Update. A complete video of the talk is below. The introduction is by Professor Peter Gill.
