our own engaged spirituality?”

In these six sessions we will:
Read and reflect on some of the significant writings of each of these spiritual giants;
Learn from their life stories and share our own journeys;
Meditate together in both traditions;
Seek ways to express an engaged spirituality in our own lives and in our institutions
Cost: $30
Includes sessions, video clips, hand outs, and two primary texts:
