Let's talk about...

The imagination is essential to our formation. So how do we engage and train it?

 

Drawing upon the wisdom, art, and practices of the ancient Church,  I offer workshops and lectures for both churches and universities to help us practice the art of fashioning the soul. 

​​

Topics include:

Virtues and vices: the imagination helps us see our vices and virtues for what they are, like a snake-eating woman who teaches us about envy or the hidden, extra set of eyes wisdom keeps in the back of her head.  

​

Sacred Spaces: from cross and boat-shaped churches to caves and underground places, Christians intentionally designed their spaces to shape their souls and orient their bodies to align with their beliefs.

​

Living the Word: by helping us imagine what it might have looked like to be in the lion's den with Daniel or to walk with Jesus toward his death, art and stories give us fresh eyes so that we can better see--and live--the creeds and Scripture.
