Church Notes for March – 2017
“If you put aside what you think you know about Jesus and approach the Gospels as though for the first time, something remarkable happens: Jesus emerges as a teacher of the transformation of consciousness. Cynthia Bourgeault is a masterful guide to Jesus’ vision and to the traditional contemplative practices you can use to experience the heart of his teaching for yourself.” – Richard Rohr, commenting on Cynthia Bourgeault’s book: The Wisdom Jesus, 2008, Shambhala Press.
