SUMMARY:Process Pop-Up: Wild Church: Communal Practices to Reconnect Spirituality and Nature
DESCRIPTION:RSVP Now\nIn this experiential webinar\, author\, wild church pastor\, and eco-spiritual guide Victoria Loorz invites participants into a sacred remembering: that we belong to a living\, speaking world—and that spirituality is not an escape from Earth\, but a return to it. Drawing from the relational theology of her book Church of the Wild and her leadership within the Seminary of the Wild and Wild Church Network\, Victoria will offer an introduction to communal practices that dissolve the false divide between the sacred and the natural. \nGrounded in process theology’s vision of an evolving\, inter-relational cosmos\, this hour will include stories\, teachings\, and practical invitations to rewild spirituality in relationship with place\, community\, and the Holy Presence at the heart of creation. Participants will be guided through a taste of Terra Divina\, a contemplative practice of listening to Earth as sacred text\, and reflect on how communal ritual can support a theology of mutual becoming. \nThis gathering is for anyone curious about how spiritual community can root itself in the wild\, relational processes of life\, and how spiritual leadership might emerge not just from pulpits\, but from trees\, rivers\, grief\, wonder\, and belonging. \n  \n\n\n\n“Beyond caring for creation or stewarding Earth’s ‘resources\,’ what we need is to invest in actual relationships with particular places and beings of the living world. Only a restored intimacy can provide the embodied\, rooted foundation for transformation. The global shift necessary to actually survive the crises we’ve created depends on a deep inner change. It depends on our remembering how to fall in love.“ \nVictoria Loorz\, Church of the Wild: How Nature Invites Us into the Sacred \n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the Speaker\n  \nVictoria Loorz\n\n\n\n\n\nVictoria Loorz\, MDiv\, is a writer\, spiritual guide\, and wild theologian whose work emerges at the convergence of process thought\, ecological consciousness\, and sacred activism. As founder of the Center for Wild Spirituality and host of The Holy Wild podcast\, she midwives a movement of spiritual rewilding—supporting leaders and seekers who long to restore sacred intimacy with the more-than-human world. Victoria also initiated the Wild Church Network\, a growing web of communities that gather outdoors in reverence and reciprocal relationship with Earth as sacred. Her books\, Church of the Wild: How Nature Invites Us into the Sacred and Field Guide to Church of the Wild\, reimagine church as a participatory\, incarnational communion with a living\, dynamic world. She lives now on the ancestral lands of the Suquamish people—among cedar trees\, tides\, and the teachings of otters—where she continues to listen for the voice of the Holy Wild.\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: By registering for and attending this event\, I grant permission to Process & Faith and the Center for Process Studies for the rights of my image\, likeness\, and sound of my voice as recorded on audio or video in this event.

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:Process Pop-Up: Islamic Feminism and Process Theology
DESCRIPTION:RSVP Now\nHow might process theology contribute to gender justice in Islamic feminist theology?\n  \n\n“By challenging classical theistic notions of omnipotence\, immutability\, and dualistic thinking\, process thought provides a theological basis for critiquing interpretations of Islamic texts that have been used to justify gender hierarchy and inequality.“ \nAdis Duderija\, PhD \n\n  \nBy emphasising a dynamic\, interconnected\, and responsive God\, process theology offers a fertile framework that challenges traditional hierarchical views of divine-human relationships and gender dynamics found in mainstream Islamic theology that have strong patriarchal tendencies.  \nIn this event\, Dr. Adis Duderija will explore how integrating process thought into Islamic feminism can provide fresh perspectives on key Islamic theological concepts that can further fortify the key ideas of Islamic feminist theology. \nDr. Duderija aims to develop more gender egalitarian understandings of divine-human relationships\, gender dynamics\, and religious authority in Islamic theology\, potentially expanding the metaphysical and theological foundations of Islamic feminism and Islamic feminist theology and opening new avenues for dialogue. \n  \nAbout the Speaker\n  \nAdis Duderija\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAdis Duderija\, PhD is an Associate Professor in the study of Islam and Society at Griffith University in Brisbane\, Queensland\, Australia. He has been publishing extensively for almost two decades on various aspects of the Islamic intellectual tradition\, especially progressive Islam. \nHis website: https://dradisduderija.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: By registering for and attending this event\, I grant permission to Process & Faith and the Center for Process Studies for the rights of my image\, likeness\, and sound of my voice as recorded on audio or video in this event.
