SUMMARY:Restless Hearts: Befriending Silence
DESCRIPTION:Author Carl McColman invites us to befriend silence\, calling on the spiritual traditions and wisdom found in centuries of monastic life. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis talk is the fourth of a yearlong series\, Restless Hearts: Mysticism\, Spirituality and Contemplation.\n​\n“Befriending Silence celebrates the ancient spirituality of Cistercian and Trappist monks\, showing how the gifts of this long-hidden spirituality can bless everyone\, even those of us who live ‘in the world.’ \nRespected speaker\, author\, and Patheos blogger Carl McColman introduces Cistercian spirituality as ‘the hidden jewel of the Church\,’ presenting a surprisingly contemporary path grounded in monastic tradition. This accessible and comprehensive guide highlights a unique focus on simplicity\, living close to the earth\, and contemplative prayer\, all of which make Cistercian spirituality relevant today. \nSteeped in chant and silence\, grounded in down-to-earth work and service\, and immersed in the mystical wisdom of teachers ancient (Bernard of Clairvaux) and modern (Thomas Merton\, Thomas Keating)\, the beautifully humble path of Cistercian spirituality has for centuries made monasteries places of retreat and renewal. Now\, Carl McColman offers the first practical introduction to this ancient\, contemplative spirituality for all people.”  -McColman’s website.\n​\nTo learn about Carl’s book\, Befriending Silence\, visit his website.  \nA continental breakfast is available. \nTo register by phone\, call Brenda at 210-341-1366 x 212. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
