This is a small clip from an all-day seminar I gave on the theory and technology of Pyro-theology. 

Description:

Often Christianity is presented as a set of spiritual experiences, religious rituals and dogmatic affirmations that enable us to interpret our world, escape it or inscribe ourselves more fully into it. In contrast, this all-day event explores an explosive understanding of faith that is concerned with transforming it. A transformation that can mean liberation in our personal lives, as well as in our wider society.

This is a faith that expresses salvation as a form of engagement with the world; an engagement that is testified to in a life overflowing with love, passion and a joyous embrace of existence. A faith that demands we critique our most dearly held beliefs and make room for our deepest doubts.
