Mystic or Bust!

Sat 1 PM | Workshop

Roger Wolsey

Many progressive Christians have come to embrace new theological insights and understandings that help the Christian faith make sense to them in the 21st century. Many progressive Christians are not currently active in local church congregations and consider themselves “post-Church.” Roger will share how embracing and deepening into contemplative and mystic practices is not a mere option, it is necessary and integral for progressive Christianity if it is to be vital, transformative, and sustainable.”I am a progressive Christian mystic. As a mystic, I’m at a point in life where I don’t have to be a Christian. My connection to the Divine is primary and I do more and more solo connecting with God. However, I maintain my affiliation with and involvement in Christianity, including a local church, for very specific reasons.” Learn more about these reasons and these invitations to spiritual growth – and share what’s working for you!
