Participants in The Heart of the Divine have asked for further opportunities to explore themes in Christian spirituality.
Continuing the Journey provides this opportunity for further and deeper reflection on the riches of the Christian spiritual tradition. Taking our bearings from those who have journeyed before us we shall be asking what we can learn from their lives and writings to help us negotiate the terrain of the contemporary spiritual landscape.
The course comprises four days on different aspects of Christian spirituality. Each day will include input from experienced speakers on a particular theme, linking key aspects of the Christian tradition to today’s spiritual quest. As with The Heart of the Divine there will be an emphasis on blending academic learning and personal experience.
Courses begin at 10am and finish at 4pm.
There will be the opportunity to attend Evensong at Salisbury Cathedral at 5.30pm
