If you’re here, you’re probably a deep diver.

You’re probably over the idea that life has black and white answers.

Instead, I imagine you’re more interested in Mystery.

Depth.

Spaciousness.

If you’re like many of us here, you crave union with the Holy One who leads us into these wide open spaces where freedom is the watchword and intimacy is the goal.   

You’ve searched, meditated, read, podcasted, and served for years, chasing this desire that will not leave you alone. 

What would it mean to be deeply fed?

To feel nourished, filled, alive? 

Thankfully, we are not alone in our desires.

Millions have passed before us, grappling with and riding those very longings as their fuel toward divine union.

You’ve heard of some of them: Teresa of Avila, Hildegard of Bingen, John of the Cross. 

But have you met the cast of 20th century mystics?

There are fierce activists like Simone Weil and Howard Thurman. 

There are oddballs, like the gin-drinking therapist Caryll Houselander or the hermit art-critic Sister Wendy Beckett.

There are interspiritual pioneers, like Thomas Merton and Thich Nhat Hanh and Bede Griffiths (who became a Hindu-Benedictine monk!).

Perhaps you’ve met Nicholas Black Elk, the Lakota Healer who prayed with both pipe and rosary.

Or Rabbi Abraham Heschel, the “apostle of astonishment” who beckoned the world to find the Holy One in wonder. 

Or the beloved Mary Oliver, whose words taught us how to pray like the owls and the trees.

Each of these mystics took their unique path up the mountain.

Each longed for union with the Holy.

From a variety of religions, cultures, and backgrounds, each forged a way in this wild modern world–

And were drawn into the spacious love that envelops us all. 

Join us to discover the humanity behind each of these larger than life figures--and the urgent spiritual wisdom they offer our age today.

Because in the end, we might learn, as they did, that it’s less about climbing the mountain–and more about falling, beginning again, and embracing our need that makes space for the Holy One to dwell within us.
