Inspired by the work of Father Thomas Keating and Rev Cynthia Bourgeault, the Wisdom Jesus Meetup offers participants opportunities to engage with the wisdom teachings of Jesus through practice and discussion.

Stepping around simplistic and literal readings of scripture, we focus on the sayings of Jesus in recorded in scripture that point to a new, transformed way of being - life lived with heart and mind in alignment, life lived beyond the binary logic of the egoic self.

Meetups will feature an opportunity to share in practices such as:

Centering Prayer
Chanted Psalms
Sacred Reading (Lectio Divina)
Calm Abiding Meditation

Come experience a direct relationship to the wisdom teachings of Jesus.

Please note the organiser of this group is Rev Tim Mansfield and Karyn is just hosting this meetup site.

      “Thanks for your kind greeting, Michelle. I've read Father Thomas's "Intimacy with God", but I haven't read "Open Mind, Open Heart", it's on my list. I've read a few of Rev Cynthia Bourgeault's books - have you read much of her?”

      “Hi Tim, It's michelle Hong. The message you left concerning if anybody could turned up after you left made me to think that you are such a thoughtful person. Happy to feel that you were not turned down yourself because no one showed up. Anyway, it's good to hear someone is practicing centering prayer everyday and go to mass. Have you read "Open mind and open heart" and "Manefesting god" by Fr. Thomas keating? They are soo good stuff!! Good ~~work Tim!! Thanks for your work ^^”
