SUMMARY:Process Pop-Up: A Systematic Theology of Love
DESCRIPTION:RSVP Now\nWhat might theology look like if “God is love” were to be its central theme? And what if divine love were understood from an open and relational perspective\, taking into account our experiences and intuitions of love? \nThomas Jay Oord attempts to answer these questions in his new book\, A Systematic Theology of Love. Compared with Evangelical systematic theology as written by people like Wayne Grudem or liberal systematic theologies as written by Paul Tillich\, Oord’s offering is drastically different.  \nOord lays out various distinctive ideas that emerge when love is understood from an open and relational perspective. Some of those ideas oppose traditional views of God’s relation to time\, creation\, and power. This Process Pop-Up provides an overview to the big ideas that make A Systematic Theology of Love so winsome to so many! \n  \n\n\n\n“My Systematic Theology of Love operates from a particular version of open and relational theology that prioritizes love\, replaces omnipotence with amipotence\, opposes divine timelessness and embraces a living deity\, says God is relational rather than unaffected\, rejects creatio ex nihilo but claims God is the ever creator\, promotes pluriform love\, and much more.” \nThomas Jay Oord\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the Speaker\n  \nThomas Jay Oord\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThomas Jay Oord\, PhD\, is a theologian\, philosopher\, and scholar of multi-disciplinary studies. Oord directs the Center for Open and Relational Theology and doctoral students at Northwind Theological Seminary. He is an award-winning author and has written or edited more than fifty books. A gifted speaker\, Oord lectures at universities\, conferences\, churches\, and institutions. He is known for his contributions to research on love\, science and religion\, open and relational theology\, the problem of suffering\, and advocacy for the full inclusion of queer people.

SUMMARY:Buddhist Process Explorations
DESCRIPTION:A Discussion Group About the Exploring\, Sharing\, and Practice of Buddhist Process-Relational Thought \n\n\n\nAt face value\, the Buddha’s Dharma and Whitehead’s Process Philosophy seem to characterize reality in very different ways\, and for different reasons. The Buddha taught that reality as we typically experience it is an impermanent\, selfless and dissatisfying process of cyclic becoming continuously powered by compulsive attachment and aversion grounded in delusion. The Buddha prescribed various methods we could deploy in order to go beyond this painful and immiserated condition\, methods which involve thorough analysis and deconstruction of our habituated and self-limiting assumptions about ourselves and the world as well as means of cultivating more purified states of awareness and embodiment so that we can awaken to the way things really are and unleash our core potential. \nWhitehead elaborated a systematic philosophical scheme\, replete with foundational metaphysical categories\, that reconstructs reality as a cumulative process of concrescence whereby many diverse feelings creatively synthesize into a novel experience\, aiming towards satisfaction and lured to completion through divine persuasion. For Whitehead\, many of the issues in philosophy and society at large could be traced to various fallacious conceptions concerning nature\, language\, and experience which he sought to rectify with his panexperiential\, process-relational Philosophy of Organism. \n  \nLEARN MORE & ENROLL

SUMMARY:Readings on Faiths: Heaven and Hell
DESCRIPTION:A Book Group Exploring the Diversity of Religion \n\n\n\nReadings on Faiths Around the World is a book group that reads and discusses books covering the vast diversity of world faiths. Of course\, the standard seven world religions will be included but we will also explore less well-known religious/spiritual groups. The only prerequisite needed for this group is a desire to learn more about the world’s religious traditions. \nOur next book is Heaven and Hell: A History of the Afterlife\, by Bart D. Ehrman. Ehrman is a leading authority on the New Testament and early Christianity. He is recently retired from the University of North Carolina.  In this book he discusses the origins of ideas surrounding what happens after death. Demonstrating that ideas of heaven and hell / punishments and rewards appear nowhere in the Old Testament and they were not taught by Jesus or his earliest followers. So\, Ehrman takes us on a trip further back in human history to discover the origins of afterlife. One discovery he makes is that there never was a single understanding of the afterlife\, but rather numerous competing ideas. Fear of death is central to many folks’ thoughts of the afterlife. But why? \n\nLEARN MORE & ENROLL

SUMMARY:Process Pop-Up: Made by Love\, For Love: Reimagining God\, Power\, and Faith
DESCRIPTION:RSVP Now\nWhat if the Christian story was never about earning God’s love or escaping this world—but about Love evolving the cosmos from the inside out?\nIn his new book\, Made by Love\, for Love\, author Michael M. Rose invites readers to reimagine Christianity—not as a drama of sin and obligatory appeasing sacrifice\, but as a cosmic love story still unfolding. Far from cracking under the weight of an expanding universe\, the gospel becomes more radiant\, more necessary\, and more astonishing than ever. \nDrawing from the evolutionary vision of Pierre Teilhard de Chardin and the Open and Relational theology of Thomas Jay Oord\, Rose’s work reveals a God whose very nature is Love—noncoercive\, relational\, persistent\, and ripe with creative potential. \n\n\nFor the spiritually disillusioned\, the deconstructing\, and anyone wondering whether Christianity can still be good news\, Made by Love\, for Love offers a vision of faith big enough for the cosmos and personal enough for our deepest wounds. In this Process Pop-Up\, Rose will introduce his project and invite conversation. \n  \n\n“Love is not the reward for getting it right.It is the context in which we learn to live.“ \nMichael M. Rose\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the Speaker\n  \nMichael M. Rose\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMichael M. Rose is a spiritual director\, grief specialist\, and theologian with three decades of experience accompanying people through faith\, loss\, and transformation. His work explores evolving faith through the lens of Open and Relational Theology and the evolutionary vision of Pierre Teilhard de Chardin. He is the author of Becoming Love and Made by Love\, For Love\, and lives in Alberta\, Canada\, where he supports individuals and communities in seasons of spiritual reimagining. \n\n\n \n\n\n\nTo reserve your seat and receive the Zoom information\, click the Going button and enter your name and email. \n\n\nDisclaimer: This event is open to the public and will be recorded.

SUMMARY:Process Pop-Up: Prayers for Mother Earth: Gratitude\, Compassion\, Repentance\, and Guidance
DESCRIPTION:RSVP Now\nMight awareness and a change of heart help us find the courage to open ourselves to deepening care for the planet?\nAncient prayer traditions and contemplation have been passed from generation to generation and are still alive today. Mary Jane Miller\, author of Prayers for Mother Earth: Gratitude\, Compassion\, Repentance\, and Guidance\, believes that recitations of love and reflection\, alone or in a group are powerful\, nurture the soul\, fuel the heart\, and uplift the spirit.  \nWhile we tend to focus a great deal on human needs—the sick\, isolated\, aged\, imprisoned\, and those in peril—Miller tells us that it may be prudent to add our devotion and respect for the Sacred as revealed on the Earth. Our contemporary society generally does not allow us time to pause long enough to appreciate our delicate\, at times imperceptible\, relationship to the natural order that surrounds us. \nIn this Process Pop-Up\, Miller will introduce us to her book Prayers for Mother Earth and reveal how it is designed as a resource and guide to focus the mind and heart on one another and Mother Earth as she speaks back to us. In an age of great fear and anxiety\, resources like these may be a tool to help us slow down and reflect on how we have participated in the crisis we are in\, our consumerism\, our desire for more\, and our total disregard for the earth that sustains our world. \nProcess theology and philosophy has long encouraged a reimagining of our relatedness to the Earth and to each other. Alfred North Whitehead described our bodies as lying “in the field of nature” and questioned the cultural bifurcation that continues to separate us from our earthly home. Miller argues that a powerful sense of grace is revealed as we gather for the sacramental petition\, communal prayer\, and a shift in our attitude toward Mother Earth: “The Earth is listening\, she sees our human dilemma\, and she is calling us to pay attention.” In this book\, Mary Jane Miller has given us words to cry out and reflect\, in unison with gratitude\, repentance\, compassion\, and guidance for the Earth’s preservation. \n\n\n  \n  \n\n“If we learn to treasure the wonder of humanity\, we will love the natural world that surrounds us. If we treasure the natural world\, we will love humanity in all its magnificent diversity.“ \nMary Jane Miller\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the Speaker\n  \nMary Jane Miller\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMary Jane Miller is an internationally recognized Byzantine-style iconographer and author living in San Miguel de Allende\, Mexico. She is a member of Women Iconographers in the 21st Century\, who are preserving the ancient technique of iconography painting. Today\, she continues to create\, teach\, and expand this sacred art using earth pigments as a spiritual visual language that leads to enlightenment. Miller especially focuses on biblical women and\, through her hand\, calls on their unheard voices to proclaim their wisdom and love. As an icon painter\, her wealth of insight is shared through a tradition that has traditionally been male-dominated. “I have come to see the world as a metaphor\, nearly everything which happens to us is screaming to be understood through the eye of the spirit\, we just need to reflect long enough to hear the message”. Her dedication and lifestyle promote a trajectory through spirituality that becomes a visual manifestation of how she understands her own personal journey. Her work may be found at https://www.millericons.com/  \n\n\n \n\n\n\nTo reserve your seat and receive the Zoom information\, click the Going button and enter your name and email. \n\n\nDisclaimer: This event is open to the public and will be recorded.

SUMMARY:Buddhist Process Explorations
DESCRIPTION:A Discussion Group About the Exploring\, Sharing\, and Practice of Buddhist Process-Relational Thought \n\n\n\nAt face value\, the Buddha’s Dharma and Whitehead’s Process Philosophy seem to characterize reality in very different ways\, and for different reasons. The Buddha taught that reality as we typically experience it is an impermanent\, selfless and dissatisfying process of cyclic becoming continuously powered by compulsive attachment and aversion grounded in delusion. The Buddha prescribed various methods we could deploy in order to go beyond this painful and immiserated condition\, methods which involve thorough analysis and deconstruction of our habituated and self-limiting assumptions about ourselves and the world as well as means of cultivating more purified states of awareness and embodiment so that we can awaken to the way things really are and unleash our core potential. \nWhitehead elaborated a systematic philosophical scheme\, replete with foundational metaphysical categories\, that reconstructs reality as a cumulative process of concrescence whereby many diverse feelings creatively synthesize into a novel experience\, aiming towards satisfaction and lured to completion through divine persuasion. For Whitehead\, many of the issues in philosophy and society at large could be traced to various fallacious conceptions concerning nature\, language\, and experience which he sought to rectify with his panexperiential\, process-relational Philosophy of Organism. \n  \nLEARN MORE & ENROLL
