What if true wealth isn’t what you keep—but what you give away?

Join Megan McKenna as she invites us to rethink wealth, spirituality, and community through a contemplative lens. As she describes it, contemplation is a “long loving look at reality,” especially the hard truths of poverty, injustice, and suffering. 

Discover how being truly seen—and learning to see others as God sees them—breaks down barriers of “us versus them” and calls us into compassionate solidarity with the poor, the earth, and each other. Join us as we challenge individualism and uncover a vision of spirituality rooted in friendship, vulnerability, and prophetic witness.
