Johannes Hartl is probably the most popular theologian in Germany at the moment. It may be surprising that something like this is still possible in secular times. What needs and desires does the philosopher, author, speaker and founder of a house of prayer serve and awaken? And is that a good thing? Topics in this episode: 00:00 Why do so many people listen to you? 14:58 What is a meaningful life? 28:15 Why is beauty and goodness important to us? 40:30 Why is prayer important? 46:04 Why does a family only exist between a man and a woman? ????

Hartl speaks to his audience, who literally hang on his every word, with passion and great commitment. The so-called MEHR conferences are attended by thousands of people. This is also due to the topics that Hartl chooses to address in public. For him it is always about the whole: about the meaning of life, about the healing power of beauty and about true connection. For Hartl it is clear: what people today lack is a vision of the future. He wants to create this with his projects and speeches. Some people therefore call him a "meaning guru", others a conservative Catholic. Who is this Johannes Hartl really, what drives him? And is such optimism really still appropriate in this day and age? Olivia Röllin in a "Sternstunden" conversation with Johannes Hartl.

That is our approach. We conduct social debates and profound conversations that entertain and inspire. Religion can be many things and it reaches deep into the middle of society. From Zen meditation to the abuse of power in the church, from football fan cults to the gender debate: we approach the broad topic of religion, faith and spirituality with critical distance. ____________________ Moderation: Olivia Röllin: / oliviaroellin Ahmad Milad Karimi: / donkarimi ____________________ Social Media Netiquette from SRF: ► https://www.srf.ch/social-netiquette #SRFCulture #SRFCultureSternstunden #SRFSternstunde #Religion #faith #themeoflife #johanneshartl #SRF #Culture
