Advent Awakening with John Philip Newell

Recording of 12/9 Zoom to the Cottage
6

Welcome to the Advent Zoom to the Cottage

To continue our journey into this season of waking and awakening, John Philip Newell joined me to talk about the incarnation — and learning to see the sacred in creation and in our lives. It was a beautiful, spiritually astonishing hour exploring our theological visions of the seasons of Advent and Christmas — and our shared hopes for Christianity shaped by longing and love.

Although this wasn’t a book talk per se, we do draw themes from John Philip’s new book, Sacred Earth/Sacred Soul: Celtic Wisdom for Reawakening to What Our Souls Know and Healing the World. I highly recommend it!

You can listen to our conversation as a podcast (above) or watch as a YouTube video (below). In the course of the conversation, I mentioned a musical piece performed by the Washington Chorus, “The Dream Isaiah Saw,” which is also posted below.

Thanks to all of you for making events like this possible. Enjoy!
