Catching Fire!
A Teilhardian Discussion Process for Parishes
Anita Wood, DMin has provided us with a program for Parish groups or for other groups of adults who wish to plump more deeply the thought of Teilhard de Chardin.
The overall goal of “Catching Fire” is growth in consciousness, which includes personal awareness of oneself (one’s own center), others, the cosmos, and the spiritual dimension of life (a shared divine Center). In particular, this resource’s goal will be accomplished as the participants gain:
- Familiarity with the core spiritual themes and evolutionary principles of Teilhard de Chardin, which integrate science and faith
- Practice in contemplative dialogue skills within a small group
- An introduction of spiritual practices which enhance spiritual consciousness
