FACILITATED BY DEAN STEVE THOMASON

The Wisdom School at Saint Mark's presents this timely presentation from Dean Steve Thomason. We are in a paradigm shift of seismic proportions.  Drawing on the evolutionary theology of Teilhard de Chardin and the ground-breaking postulations by Ilia Delio, we will explore what embodied spirituality means in a post-human world where climate change, artificial intelligence, and modern medicine converge to create an altered dynamic in which humans exist and evolve. What is the role of spirituality in this increasingly complex and complicated world?

Program is free. Optional community dinner served at 6 p.m. ($6/child; $8/adult; $25/max. family).

UPDATE: The slides for both session are now available: session 1 slides; session 2 slides.

Complete video of both sesssions may be seen below.
