The Eco-Spiritual Priest
Thomas Berry & the Communion of All
Â
Welcome to a rich encounter with one of the visionaries of this Earth moment. Sage, monk, shaman, poet, geologian, path-finder and guide to a new Earth future - the world-class seer Thomas Berry embodies and teaches a way to realize our cosmic vocation by way of a New Story and an urgent summons to take up The Great Work of healing our desolating relationship with Earth by embodying a cosmology of peace.
Meet the wisdom keeper of the age to come as we practice our way into new modes of intimacy and communion with all our kin in this still unfolding, mysterious universe.
