SUMMARY:The Christian Mutation: Why God Cannot be Static
DESCRIPTION:Join us Thursday\, December 4\, at 5 p.m. ET for a Center for Christogenesis webinar with Ilia Delio. \nOur communities are hemorrhaging. Racism persists. Gun violence claims the innocent. Immigrants are scapegoated. Nationalism wraps itself in the flag and claims the name of Christ. If religion is\, as Tillich argued\, the substance of culture\, then our cultural substance is corrupted. But the question is more urgent than diagnosis: What if Christianity abandoned its political vocation at the very beginning? What if\, in the early centuries\, we traded the revolutionary God of Jesus for a philosophical abstraction—a timeless\, immutable\, apolitical principle governing us from a distance? \nThis talk will ask: Who is the God of Jesus of Nazareth\, the God of radical mutuality\, vulnerability\, and love? Sr. Ilia will discuss how this God is fundamentally relational\, genuinely becoming\, and deeply embedded in the world’s suffering and creativity—offering us a path beyond both religious nationalism and secular despair. She will then turn to Teilhard de Chardin’s notion of love as the evolutionary force through which God emerges within creation\, and through which a genuinely new political order might yet be born. \nThe recording will be available to all registrants within one week of the event.

SUMMARY:The Story of the Noosphere
DESCRIPTION:Join us Wednesday\, October 22\, at 7 p.m. ET for a Center for Christogenesis webinar with Brian Swimme and Monica DeRaspe-Bolles\, authors of award-winning The Story of the Noosphere. \nThe Story of the Noosphere reimagines our role in Earth’s evolution. We are not here merely to consume\, but to participate directly in bringing forth a unified humanity. The same cosmic evolutionary force that created stars and galaxies is now constructing a thinking Earth\, with the human collective as a planetary mind—what Teilhard de Chardin named the “noosphere.” Once perceptible only to visionaries like Teilhard\, the noosphere is now visible\, to any attentive mind\, as a global nervous system of instantaneous communication\, as an economic network more powerful than any nation-state\, and as an AI-infused internet offering the full treasury of human knowledge to every community. This vision is no longer abstract philosophy; it is the architecture of our daily lives. Just as we now rely on the noosphere for our survival\, the noosphere relies on us—on our creativity\, insights\, and aspirations—for its ongoing emergence. In this new cosmic story\, each of us lives at the junction where the universe is awakening. Our personal destiny is entwined with the destiny of the whole. The challenge is not simply to observe this new era of Earth’s history\, but to shape it—to bring intelligence\, compassion\, and courage to the great work now underway.  \nAbout Our Guests\nMonica DeRaspe-Bolles is a doctoral student at the California Institute of Integral Studies\, where she researches time-developmental cosmology and the potential emergence of a new structure of human experience that fosters cosmogenetic awakening. She is the co-author of The Story of the Noosphere and the co-writer of its thirty-five companion minifilms\, created in collaboration with Brian Thomas Swimme. \nBrian Thomas Swimme is Emeritus Professor of Cosmology at the California Institute of Integral Studies. He completed his doctoral work in gravitational dynamics at the University of Oregon. Swimme is the host of the Emmy Award–winning PBS special Journey of the Universe\, co-written with Mary Evelyn Tucker. His most recent book\, Cosmogenesis: An Unveiling of the Expanding Universe\, is an early example of autocosmology—a genre blending contemporary science with cosmological phenomenology. He writes Starborne: The Journal of Autocosmology on Substack. \nThe recording will be available to all registrants within one week of the event.

SUMMARY:The Future of Religion: Questions from the Next Generation
DESCRIPTION:Join us Tuesday\, September 23\, 2025\, at 7 p.m. ET for a Center for Christogenesis free live Q&A with Robert Nicastro as part of our monthly webinar series. Simply register in advance below to receive the access information.  \nTo add a donation to your registration and support our work use this separate\, secure form. \n\n“The future belongs to those who give the next generation reason for hope.” \n— Pierre Teilhard de Chardin \nTeilhard’s insight reminds us that the vitality of religion is carried forward by the hope of emerging generations and sustained by the wisdom of those who have gone before. Today’s generation is entering a new stage of evolution\, in which digital culture\, planetary crisis\, and expanding consciousness are accelerating the growth of the noosphere and reshaping what it means to be human.  \nIn this live Q&A\, Robert will engage the pressing questions being asked about the future of faith. Guided by Teilhard’s cosmic vision\, we will discuss how religion might take new form as evolution presses toward greater complexity and convergence. What does the energy of divine love look like in an age of technology and artificial intelligence? How do we understand God in a universe still coming to birth? And what forms of faith can sustain hope\, creativity\, and wholeness across generations? This conversation opens a space for dialogue and collective imagination\, inviting us to glimpse the religion of tomorrow emerging within the unfinished universe. \nA copy of the recording will be sent to all registrants within one week of the event.

SUMMARY:The Art of Becoming Fearless
DESCRIPTION:Join us Thursday\, August 28\, at 7 p.m. ET for a Center for Christogenesis webinar with our Executive Director\, Robert Nicastro\, PhD. \nIn a world facing ecological collapse\, technology unmoored from wisdom\, and a deepening crisis of meaning\, fear has become the undertow of modern consciousness. This webinar invites us to resist that gravitational pull by reclaiming the prophetic imagination and Teilhard de Chardin’s vision of relational holism. Drawing from the urgency of the biblical prophets\, who dared to speak hope into history’s darkest hours\, as well as Teilhard’s cosmic mysticism\, we will reframe fear not as an adversary\, but as a crucible for transformation. Fear is not darkness to escape\, but a threshold of possibility: a charged space where divine longing stirs human courage and the future leans in\, inviting response. To live fearlessly is not to reject vulnerability\, but to embrace it as the birthplace of deeper trust in the unfolding of love at the heart of the cosmos. In the spirit of the prophets and the evolutionary rhythm of life itself\, fear becomes the spark that calls us to risk more boldly\, rise more fully\, and become more wholly ourselves. \nThe recording will be available to all registrants within one week of the event.

SUMMARY:Is Real Change Possible? Changing our Minds in a Sea of Information
DESCRIPTION:This is a no-cost webinar as part of our June Fundraiser. Simply register in advance below to receive the access information. To learn more about the vision for our June fundraiser\, read Sr. Ilia’s post Integral Ecology in an Age of AI. \nThe mind is everything: what you think\, you become; yet what shapes the mind? Culture? Religion? AI? From where do our thoughts arise? What forms our ideas? Integral ecology is a consciousness of deep relationality on every level. We know this intellectually\, but we do not know this psychologically\, religiously\, or emotionally. Deep relationality does not influence our minds in the same way as does consumerism\, money\, or social media. What are the obstacles? What are the invitations? And is real transformation possible? \nJoin Sr. Ilia Delio and Robert Nicastro for this special event on Friday\, June 20 2025 from 7:00 – 8:30 PM ET. \nTo add a donation to your registration and support our June fundraiser use this seperate\, secure form. \nA copy of the recording will be sent to all registrants within two weeks of the event.

SUMMARY:Does God Need Us?
DESCRIPTION:The St. Catherine of Siena Lecture will be given online and in-person by Ilia Delio for our partner The Well Spirituality Center\, co-sponsored by The Siena Center of Dominican University. \nClassical theology states that God freely creates\, that is\, God creates with no other motive than God’s own desire and delight. God is in relationship with us but does not depend on us. Teilhard de Chardin reflected on God’s relationship to the world and concluded that God and the world are in mutual relationship. God is not so much delighted by the world but dependent on the world for God’s own fullness of life. We will explore Teilhard’s insights with regard to the significance of the cosmic Christ\, Christian life\, and the Church. \nA recording will be available to registrants via email approximately 3 business days after the program. \nTo purchase tickets and learn more visit the event page. Please contact The Well Spirituality Center with questions.

SUMMARY:Rethinking Religion in an Age of Science
DESCRIPTION:The Center for Christogenesis will hold its annual conference virtually starting Friday\, May 2\, 2025\, and continuing through the weekend. \nRethinking Religion in an Age of Science: From Institution to Evolution\nAccording to recent Pew Studies\, religion is waning as spiritual secularism is rising. While the data has sounded alarm bells\, there may be good reason why religion has become irrelevant while spirituality has become a cultural icon. This conference aims to suture the relationship between religion and spirituality by relocating religion at the heart of cosmic life. Religion has not gone away but it is advancing in new ways. Formal or institutional religion has sidetracked the modern person by placing constraints around religion and segregating its core energies in creeds and doctrines. Teilhard de Chardin realized that religion is essential to the direction of evolution. We will explore how a renewed sense of religion in evolution can reinvigorate planetary life\, especially in an age of technology. \nLearn more about our speakers on our conference page. Detailed session schedule\, talk titles and abstracts to come soon. \nStudent pricing and limited scholarships are available for this conference. Please apply here and we will email with registration instructions.

SUMMARY:Process Mysticism with Dan Dombrowski
DESCRIPTION:Join us Thursday\, April 10\, at 7 p.m. ET for a Center for Christogenesis webinar with Professor of Philosophy Dan Dombrowski. \nThe term “mysticism” can mean at least two different things. The term can refer to direct experience of God or it can refer to the thesis that reality is ineffable and can be characterized only in paradoxical ways. These two meanings are quite different because there is nothing in the concept of direct experience of God that entails paradox or ineffability.  \nThe purpose of the presentation is to explore both senses of what it means to be a mystic from the perspectives of several process philosophers or neoclassical theists\, including Alfred North Whitehead\, Henri Bergson\, Pierre Teilhard de Chardin\, and especially Charles Hartshorne. This exploration will dispel the traditional opposition between the God of religious experience and “the God of the philosophers.”  \nDan Dombrowski will argue against the classical concept of God\, which gives rise to such opposition. Judicious versions of divine inclusiveness\, nature mysticism\, ideal power (if not omnipotence)\, asceticism\, apophaticism\, “visions and voices\,” and religious aesthetics and ethics will also be discussed\, as time permits.   \nAbout Dan Dombrowski\nDaniel A. Dombrowski is Professor of Philosophy at Seattle University. He is the author of twenty-two books and over two-hundred articles in scholarly journals in philosophy\, theology\, classics\, and literature. Among his books are Rethinking the Ontological Argument: A Neoclassical Theistic Response (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press\, 2006); Contemporary Athletics and Ancient Greek Ideals (Chicago: University of Chicago Press\, 2009); and Process Philosophy and Political Liberalism: Rawls\, Whitehead\, Hartshorne (Edinburgh: Edinburgh University Press\, 2019).  \nHis latest book is Process Mysticism (Albany: State University of New York Press\, 2023). He is the Editor of the journal Process Studies and is Past-President of the Metaphysical Society of America. \nThe recording will be available to all registrants within two weeks of the event.

SUMMARY:Science and Religion in a Participatory Cosmos
DESCRIPTION:Join us Wednesday\, March 19\, at 7 p.m. ET for a Center for Christogenesis webinar with philosopher and process thinker Matthew David Segall. \nThis talk explores the evolving relationship between natural science and theology through the lens of process philosophy\, arguing that both disciplines—often seen as conflicting ways of knowing and worldviews—can be reframed and integrated within a participatory understanding of the cosmos.  \nDrawing on Alfred North Whitehead’s organic realism\, as well as kindred thinkers like Schelling and Teilhard de Chardin\, the presentation will critique the bifurcation of nature that underlies the dominant scientific materialist paradigm and instead offer an onto-epistemology in which experience\, creativity\, and relationality are fundamental.  \nBy engaging with contemporary developments in quantum physics\, complexity science\, and process/open and relational theology\, this talk aims to demonstrate how a participatory cosmology can bridge the divide between scientific empiricism and mystical experience. \nAbout Matthew David Segall\nMatthew David Segall\, PhD\, is a philosopher\, educator\, and transdisciplinary researcher specializing in process philosophy and the intersection of science and spirituality. His scholarship focuses the implications of Alfred North Whitehead’s organic realism for contemporary natural scientific and philosophical discourse\, emphasizing the participatory nature of knowledge and reality. He is currently co-editing a special issue of the journal Religions titled “Cosmology\, Creation\, and Divine Agency: Bridging Scientific Theories and Theology.” His most recent book is titled Crossing the Threshold: Etheric Imagination in the Post-Kantian Process Philosophy of Schelling and Whitehead (Integral Imprint\, 2023). He blogs regularly at Footnotes2Plato.com. \nThe recording will be available to all registrants within two weeks of the event.

SUMMARY:Ask Me Anything with Ilia Delio
DESCRIPTION:This is an online webinar with Ilia Delio for our partner Human Energy. \nJoin Human Energy for an enlightening “Ask Me Anything” (AMA) session with renowned theologian and scientist\, Ilia Delio\, on Friday\, March 14th. This event offers a unique opportunity to engage directly with a leading voice at the intersection of science\, religion\, and human consciousness.​ \nEvent Focus: The Noosphere and the Integration of Science and Religion\nIn this AMA\, we will delve into themes from Ilia’s recent presentation at the N2 2024 Conference\, titled “Teilhard’s Noosphere: Why Evolution and Religion Belong Together.” She explores the concept of the noosphere—a term introduced by Pierre Teilhard de Chardin to describe the sphere of human thought and collective consciousness—and discusses the intrinsic relationship between matter\, consciousness\, and the spiritual energy driving evolution. Ilia emphasizes the need for a holistic understanding of science and religion as complementary forces shaping the future of humanity and the planet. \nAbout Human Energy\nHuman Energy is dedicated to fostering thoughtful dialogue at the intersection of technology\, consciousness\, and society. We aim to help humanity recognize that evolution is advancing toward a greater collective potential and to cultivate a unified vision for the flourishing of both our species and our planet.

SUMMARY:Catholicity and Wholeness Beyond the Church
DESCRIPTION:Join us Thursday\, February 27\, at 7 p.m. ET for a Center for Christogenesis webinar with Society of African Missions member and Ph.D. candidate Augustin Kassa. \nWhat happens when we finally recognize and consider the cosmos as the real\, the true\, the absolute catholic? The cosmos can be understood as the true manifestation of catholicity (derived from the Greek katholikos\, meaning universal or all-embracing)\, representing fundamental unity and completeness beyond religious institutions. As the totality of existence\, it embodies genuine wholeness while existing in a dynamic paradox of being complete yet incomplete due to ongoing cosmic evolution.  \nThis cosmic catholicity is maintained through an intricate web of spatiotemporal relationships encompassing past\, present\, and future states of being. The understanding of this universal wholeness can be approached through three distinct but complementary epistemological frameworks: culturalicity (represented by philosophies like Ubuntu and various ancient religious traditions\, including Christianity)\, scienticity (exemplified by Big Bang cosmology)\, and technicity (instrumental-practical approaches).  \nRather than establishing hierarchical superiority\, we will discuss how these paradigms offer unique insights into cosmic unity\, each illuminating different aspects of the universal whole while maintaining their epistemological integrity. Together\, they form a comprehensive approach to understanding cosmic wholeness\, with their value lying in their ability to facilitate deeper engagement with existence through their respective methodological lenses. \nAbout Augustin Kassa\nAugustin Kassa\, SMA\, is a member of the Society of African Missions and a Ph.D. candidate at Villanova University. What began as scattered seeds of curiosity across various fields of study has recently blossomed into a singular quest\, the search for wholeness. Over the past few years\, he has discovered a theological perspective that celebrates connection rather than demanding traditional theology division. Today\, his research interests stand at an exciting crossroads. His work focuses on weaving together three seemingly disparate threads to foster a greater sense of togetherness. While he aims to unite cultural wisdom (primarily African Ubuntu)\, religious insights\, and scientific understandings of togetherness\, he always respect and validate each tradition’s effort to locate and experience connectedness.  \nThe recording will be available to all registrants within two weeks of the event.

The fluent character of the togetherness of things was already emphasized in Greek philosophy: All things flow\, said Heraclitus. Indeed the fact is too obvious to escape notice. But unfortunately things which are too obvious often escape receiving their due emphasis” — Alfred North Whitehead \nCheck out the course teaser video. \nAbout the Teacher: \nAndrew M. Davis\, Ph.D. is an American process philosopher\, theologian\, and scholar of cosmological wonder. He is the academic and research director for the Center for Process Studies where he researches\, writes\, teaches\, and organizes conferences on various aspects of process-relational thought (Whitehead and Beyond). An advocate of metaphysics and meaning in a hospitable universe\, he approaches philosophy as the endeavor to systematically think through what reality must be like because we are a part of it. He is the author\, editor\, and co-editor of nearly a dozen books including Mind\, Value\, and Cosmos: On the Relational Nature of Ultimacy\, Process Cosmology: New Integrations in Science and Philosophy\, and Metaphysics of Exo-Life: Toward a Constructive Whiteheadian Cosmotheology.

SUMMARY:The Noosphere and the Global South Conference
DESCRIPTION:This December\, 16-18\, 2024 immerse yourself in this important dialogue and participate in this free live-stream of the Noosphere and the Global South Conference hosted by Human Energy. \nAs part of this Conference\, Ilia Delio presents\, Teilhard’s Noosphere: Why Evolution and Religion Belong Together. \nThe Noosphere is our present reality of complexified matter and global consciousness. Scientists mapping the Noosphere show grids of interconnections that reveal a formative pattern of a higher-ordered collective. Teilhard de Chardin envisioned this pattern almost a century ago\, but he saw that emerging complexified wholeness cannot be adequately sustained without religion. He did not conceive religion as a confessional set of doctrines but the depth dimension of all reality\, the search for ultimate meaning\, and the state of being grasped by ultimate concerns. “Religion and evolution\,” he said\, “are destined to form one single continuous organism\, in which their respective lives prolong\, are dependent on\, and complete one another.” Religion is the biological response to the emergence of spiritual energy. His sense of religion\, therefore\, is experiential and supports faith in the future. The true function of religion is to sustain and spur on the progress of life. In his view\, no one religion can satisfy the religious spirit of the earth and its evolution towards Omega. If religion is a biological phenomenon\, what is religion on the level of emerging Noosphere? Science has significantly advanced the Noosphere but without a rebirth of religion\, the future is fragile. \nRegistration is free for all participants. You must register in advance to attend the event in person. (See link in side panel) \n*All presentations will be live-streamed for open access. \nWatch the invitation to the Conference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jdkHTdotR-M

SUMMARY:Can Science Be a Form of Faith? A Discussion of Teilhard's Vision
DESCRIPTION:Can Science Be a Form of Faith? A Discussion of Teilhard’s Vision \nTeilhard de Chardin\, a pioneering thinker at the intersection of science and religion\, envisioned a cosmos in which matter and spirit are entangled in an evolutionary journey toward ultimate unity. He suggested that science is not only a method for understanding the material world but also a profound source of revelation. In a world fraught with division\, fear\, and uncertainty\, join Ilia and Robert for a discussion on how contemporary science can deepen our sense of the divine\, renew our zest for life\, and offer direction and hope in a time of crisis. \nJoin Ilia and Robert for this special event on\nDecember 6\, 2024 at 7:00 – 8:00 PM (New York EST) \nThis is a no-cost event. Simply register in advance below to receive the access information. \nA copy of the recording will be sent within two weeks of the event. \nIf you would like to add a donation to your event registration\, please use this form.

SUMMARY:Teilhard's Omega Point: Does Evolution Have Direction?
DESCRIPTION:Jesuit scientist Pierre Teilhard de Chardin proposed a cosmic vision of evolution governed by the principle of Omega.  Confusion around his use of this symbol has led to speculative ideas\, including a terminal point of evolution. \nIn this talk\, Ilia will explore Teilhard’s notion of Omega as a governing principle of increasing complexity and consciousness\, accompanied by increasing spirit and the energy of love. The Omega principle provides a framework to discuss a possible direction of evolution. \nHow to participate? \n\nJoin Steve McIntosh’s Zoom group – the Zoom group is a monthly forum on the evolution of consciousness and culture. Steve and his guests focus on philosophy\, politics\, spirituality\, and related topic of intellectual interest to the group. Through conversation and fellowship\, we’re building a free cultural space for the exploration of integral consciousness.

SUMMARY:Healing Our Collective Pain with Sheri Kling (Session 1/2)
DESCRIPTION:Healing Our Collective Pain: Worldviews\, Dreamwork\, and Transformation \nThis is a two-part workshop with Sheri Kling on November 12 and 19 at 7PM ET. One registration grants access to both sessions. \nWe are a fragmented people in deep pain. In the West – and especially in the United States  – we are divided societally\, as evidenced in our political polarization and the rise of hate groups\, we are divided interpersonally as evidenced in increasing loneliness and isolation\, and we are divided intrapersonally\, as is evidenced by the exploding usage of antidepressants and the correlation between early adverse childhood experience and adult suffering and illness. \nEvery day the world seems to tell us that we are isolated individuals struggling to matter\, to belong\, and to change our negative experiences. If we are to move toward wholeness societally\, interpersonally\, and intrapersonally\, neither religion nor psychological theory and practice are enough because the very worldview that we are swimming in as a culture – materialistic dualism – is a major reason for the splitting we experience. Could there be a way to look at both cosmos and psyche that promotes wholeness rather than separation? \nWhether the topic is politics\, racism\, or climate change and environmental destruction\, the hard truth is that we cannot effect a change in the popular imagination with facts and reason alone. In this workshop\, Sheri D. Kling will offer new ways to look at both cosmos and psyche and show how a spiritual practice of dream work can be an embodied\, transformational practice that reveals a Reality that shows us that we matter\, we belong\, and we can experience positive change. \nAgenda \nTuesday\, November 12\, Session 1: Worldviews\, Fragmentation & Integration – in this session we’ll discuss the problem of fragmentation\, the worldviews that seem to foster it\, and introduce the integrating resources available from the thinking of Alfred North Whitehead and Carl Gustav Jung. \nTuesday\, November 19\, Session 2: Dreams & Transformation – in this session we’ll explore dream work as an embodied spiritual practice for transformation and how dreams may actually be encounters with God in the world and in our lives. \nAbout the Speaker \nSheri D. Kling\, Ph.D.\, is the director of Process & Faith with the Center for Process Studies and interim minister of Redeemer Lutheran Church in Bradenton\, FL.  Sheri earned her Ph.D. in Religion: Process Studies from Claremont School of Theology and her MATS from the Lutheran School of Theology at Chicago. She is a theologian\, songwriter\, and spiritual teacher who draws from wisdom and mystical traditions\, relational worldviews\, depth psychology\, and the intersection of spirituality and science to help people find meaning\, belonging\, and transformation. Sheri is a faculty member of the Haden Institute\, adjunct faculty with Claremont School of Theology\, and the author of A Process Spirituality: Christian and Transreligious Resources for Transformation as well as a contributor to several other books. She regularly delivers dynamic “Music & Message” presentations to groups\, and offers courses\, concerts\, and spiritual retreats. Sheri may be found online at sherikling.com.

SUMMARY:Evolution in Divine Love with Swami Padmanabha
DESCRIPTION:October webinar with Swami Padmanabha \nEvolution in Divine Love: The Eternal Becoming of God\, Soul\, and Matter\nAccording to Gaudiya Vaishnavism\, divine love is a force of constant expansion which surely affects God\, who is love personified. A God affected by ever-evolving love becomes equally ever-evolving\, thus dismantling outdated paradigms of a changeless and static Absolute. In turn\, this invites each of us to a never-ending and awe-inspiring journey of perpetual development\, under the influence of an ever-fresh love and an ever-fresh God fallen in love. Since reality exists as a holarchy of interconnected wholes\, even matter becomes entangled in this sacred equation. Based on the Gaudiya Vaishnava perspective but also drawing from other wisdom traditions\, this presentation explores the “ever-evolvingness” of love\, God\, soul\, and matter\, and how embracing such a dynamic perspective of life can influence and transform both our lives and the world we live in. \nSwami Padmanabha is a monk\, theologian\, and scholar within the Gaudiya Vaishnava tradition of Hinduism. For over twenty-five years\, he has traveled extensively\, delivering lectures at universities\, conferences\, ashrams\, churches\, and institutions worldwide. Fluent in English and Spanish\, Swami is the author of hundreds of articles and two books\, published in multiple languages and praised by both academics and practitioners. Additionally\, Swami hosts The Free Radical Podcast\, where he engages in conversation with guests from diverse disciplines.

SUMMARY:Returning Religion to the Prophetic with Ilia Delio
DESCRIPTION:As we move into a presidential election in the US\, we see the role of religion transformed into a powerful political tool. What happens when religion is emptied out of its primal meaning and becomes replacement therapy for anger\, anxiety and existential fear? Teilhard de Chardin had a vision of deep hope\, rooted in the dynamic process of religion and evolution. He returns religion to the place of the mystical\, the dynamic in-breaking of new being. We will explore a renewed meaning of Teilhard’s vision of religion and evolution in a world that seems to be out of control\, and our role in bringing about a more just and unified world. \nSpecial two-hour presentation (New York EDT). \nEvery registration will receive a copy of the webinar recording within two weeks of the event.

SUMMARY:Making the Choice for a Deeply Personal God with Ilia Delio
DESCRIPTION:Is Christianity unique among world religions? Is it a secular religion compared to other transcendent religious paths? Does Christianity depart from axial religions and form a new trajectory of religious consciousness? This talk will focus on Christianity as a mutation of consciousness\, a breakthrough in awareness of the experience of God. We will focus on the stories of Jesus of Nazareth\, his experience of God\, and the human person as the tabernacle of divinity. The ideas of Carl Jung and Teilhard de Chardin on individuation and personalization will be discussed\, and the relationship between religion and evolution will be engaged. It is time to consider that Christianity was never meant to be a new institutional religion but the depth and meaning of personal and collective consciousness. That is\, Christianity is a religion of evolution.

SUMMARY:Ilia Delio at The Voice of the Feminine
DESCRIPTION:S. Ilia will be a featured guest at Aspen Chapel’s 2024 Mini Retreat Program\, “The Voice of the Feminine.” Full programming begins in February and continues into the spring. For more details or to contact the organizer please visit the event website.  \nFrom our friends at Aspen Chapel: \nLast year we offered you a ‘Speaker Program’. The series brought modern mystics to the chapel\, to share their wisdom. \nThis year we wanted to expand the idea into more of a ‘retreat’. To that end we will be offering a more ‘holistic’ approach\, enabling you to you take time out of your life and put yourself in an environment to re-evaluate and refresh. We will be offering meditation at the start of each day\, yoga at lunchtime and healthy plant based snacks with our teas and coffees. \nWe are also encouraging you to join us for a potluck lunch – inviting you to bring a salad\, or some other offering\, to share with others. \nEach event will be a chance to form a small community for that weekend and get to know new people\, as well as being exposed to the wisdom of our visiting facilitators. \nThe events will run a little earlier than last year\, giving people more time at the end of the day. We will start on the Saturday at 9.00am MT and have a lunch break at 11.30- 12.30. The day will finish at 3pm. \nOn each of the Sundays we will be joined by the Aspen Chapel Community as we gather at 9.30am. There will be an hour together with Q&A to integrate the weekend. We will then have a reception afterwards. This Sunday portion is free and open to all. The Saturday Retreats are all $80\, with the live streaming cost set at $65. There are substantial reductions for subscribing to more of the events. \nThe program will be introduced on February 1st  6-8pm by Rabbi Shira Stutman\, who is working with our friends at the Aspen Jewish Congregation. She will be talking about ‘Gender and the Divine – He/She/It/Them/They?’ Click here for details \nThis is followed by:\nCynthia Bourgeault (February 17th) \nIlia Delio (April 13th) \nHeather Vesey (April 27th) \nSusan Aposhyan (May 18th) \n(Click on each of the names to go to their pages.) \nOnce again\, the events will be both ‘in person’ and ‘online’ with substantial discounts for booking all 4 main speakers. There is also a 15% ‘Early Bird’ discount if you book before January 1st 2024. Just enter the code RETREAT24. \nTo book places\, click here \nWe hope you will feel able to be a part of this program.
