Exploring Socially Engaged Mysticism
Online
Mondays, February 23 to March 23
7:00pm to 8:00pm ET
In this five-week series, we will explore the relationship between mystical practice and social action. Through conversation, study grounded in the work of Howard Thurman and contemplative practice, we will examine how the mystical tradition cultivates resilience, equanimity, and perseverance as God’s life moves through us and clarifies what is truly ours to do in the long work of justice.
Applications for this course open on January 12, 2026 and close February 11.
