The School of Life

London's School of Life bills itself as "a place where you can try out a variety of cultural solutions to everyday ailments". They offer schooling, travel holidays, bibliotherapy, expert sermons, and conversational meals.

We offer courses about the big issues of life -- love, politics, work, family, play. The courses have been devised by leading authors, artists, actors and academics. They combine the experiences of a remarkable faculty with insights from great thinkers of the past, to offer you intelligent and playful ways to interpret the world, and your place within it.

Seems a bit like a secular church...all the fellowship with none of the gee-oh-dee. Here's a short video from Monocle that explains a bit more about it. (via buzzfeed)
