Matthew Fox Lecture & Book Signing: The Gifts of the Christian Mystics for Our Times
Matthew Fox is among those who believe that through the ages religious patriarchal hierarchy and rigidity have obscured Christianity's most beneficial and essential teachings: those that arise out of personal mystical experience of the Divine. Fox will explore and celebrate the mystical path with insightful commentary on the thoughts and revelations of some of history's greatest religious visionaries; including Hildegard of Bigen, Meister Eckhart, Thomas Merton and others. We will learn what the Christian mystical tradition can bring to the issues of our day and the religious renewal of our times.
Matthew Fox, the author of over thirty books, including Original Blessing, and The Coming of the Cosmic Christ, is a theologian, educator, and winner of numerous awards. He became a Roman Catholic priest of the Dominican Order, but was removed in 1992 and has subsequently become an Episcopal priest. Fox has been renewing the ancient tradition of Creation Spirituality, which is feminist, prophetic, and committed to eco, social, and gender justice.
