Wrestling with God: Resistance and Acquiescence in our Journey
What do God and love ask of us? That can be answered in a single word, Surrender. But much inside of us resists, wanting its own way; so goes the journey. Jacob wrestled an entire night with God; the great prophets often said to God, Thy will be changed; Jesus himself sweated blood in Gethsemane, asking God to change his will; and even in our most intimate relationships we still resist losing our independence. Our journey in faith and in love is a constant struggle between resistance and surrender. What drives this? What is healthy and what is not? Understanding God, understanding ourselves, understanding our struggle, and understanding love.

Lecture Series
Oblate School of Theology
The Eclipse of Romance, Sex and Soul: The Death and Burial of Chastity in the Culture
We guide our lives, consciously but mostly unconsciously, by the symbols we live under. Since the cultural and sexual revolutions of the 1960s the concept of chastity (a high symbol of romance, sex, and soul) has been effectively killed off and buried in our culture. What is chastity? Does our neglect of it help deaden our eros and trivialize soul? How is the Me Too movement a statement for chastity? This series will focus on chastity, its need, its meaning, the consequences for its neglect, and some suggestions as to its resurrection.
Three consecutive Wednesdays, March 9, 16, 23 7:00-8:30 pm (Central Time)
On line or in person. The event will be recorded and for you to view at a convenient time.
