Bare-bones Mystical Theology of Jesus 09-02-2017

Over time, progressive Christianity has been less and less interested in creedal statements. But if there isn’t some orthodox standard around the person of Jesus, the whole progressive enterprise will succumb to questionable innovations.

Theology of Jesus is the measuring rod of orthodoxy. Once there’s resolution about Jesus, then there’s a foundation upon which to anchor the Twenty-first Century Church, in all its breadth.

My hope is the emerging Christian paradigm will learn from our Oriental Orthodox sisters and brothers about Jesus’ essence. My hope is that theologians won’t deviate so far from orthodoxy so as to become unrecognizably Christian. The Jesus Paradox is the anchor for the Oriental Orthodox Church. I assert here that it is also the anchor for contemplative Christianianity and progressive Christianity. For more on the Jesus Paradox, see my first book, Healing The Divide: Recovering Christianity’s Mystic Roots.

The Way of the Wisdom Jesus: Going Beyond the Mind to the Heart of His Teaching – If you put aside what you think you know about Jesus and approach the Gospels as though for the first time, something remarkable happens: Jesus emerges as a teacher of the transformation of consciousness. In this online course, Episcopal priest, teacher, and retreat and conference leader Cynthia Bourgeault serves as a masterful guide to Jesus’s vision and to the traditional contemplative practices you can use to experience the heart of his teaching for yourself.  Based upon her book the Wisdom Jesus.

Our friends at Contemplative Light are offering  Contemplative Practices. This  course examines in-depth traditional practices of the Christian mystics, including:  The Examen, Centering Prayer, Lectio Divina, The Jesus Prayer and Christian Meditation.

Prayer is a core Christian practice, but for many, this means “saying prayers” or asking God for various favors. In this course, we will review a variety of methods of prayer that have been used for centuries in Christianity. Whether you’re a beginner who is just learning how to pray, or a more mature Christian who has been at it awhile, this course will offer specific guidance, encouragement and support for practicing several time-tested methods of prayer.  Enjoy a review of this course by Rich.
