July Schedule

July 20: The Tears of Things Part One: Prophecy
​
The first of a two-forum conversation about Richard Rohr’s new book “The Tears of Things.” The Rev. Mike Angell leads a discussion on prophecy in the Old Testament and today. How do we understand "prophecy" as it functions within society, and for us spiritually. What does it mean to cultivate the "prophetic imagination" in times of crisis?

July 27: The Tears of Things Part Two: Crisis, Contemplation, and Liberation
​
In the second forum on Richard Rohr's book, "The Tears of Things" we look at contemplation and action, the balance between them, and the contemplative themes that have emerged across Richard's work. We will also look at other teachers like Barbara Holmes, Howard Thurman, and the Latin American Liberation Theologians as they influence the ideas of working for justice.​
