Teilhard’s The Divine Milieu
This year, the Institute for Religion and Science at Chestnut Hill College and the American Teilhard Association plan to sponsor Reading Circle on Zoom on the second Monday and Wednesday of each month. Both monthly sessions will involve the same content. Monday meetings are at 6:30-8:00pm ET and the Wednesday sessions are at 2:00-3:30pm ET.
We will be reading Teilhard’s The Divine Milieu. During the meeting, we will use a Lectio Divina style, reading and discussing the material together slowly and thoughtfully.
Here are the dates and tentative topics for the next three months:
February 12 and 14: PART TWO Section 3, part A and B
March 11 and 13: PART TWO: Section 3, part C and D
April 8 and 10: PART TWO: General Remarks on Asceticism, Sections 1
May 13 and 15: PART TWO: General Remarks on Asceticism, Sections 2 and 3
If you wish to join us and are not yet on the mailing list for the Institute for Religion and Science Reading Circle, please send me an email kduffy@chc.edu stating your interest.
Online Study Group: Teilhard’s The Human Phenomenon
With Ernie Tamminga
Begins July 9, 2024
3:30pm ET
Contact: ernietamminga@yahoo.com
This study group will be led by Ernie Tamminga, PhD, trained Spiritual Director and Cross-Cultural Religious Studies specialist. It will begin on Tuesday, July 9 and continue on alternate Tuesdays “for as long as it takes.” Sessions will last 75 minutes each. Join us as we venture with Teilhard into a journey through cosmic and terrestrial evolution, toward what he called a “Point Omega” of awakening planetary consciousness awaiting us ahead. We will use Sarah Appleton-Weber’s 1999 translation, The Human Phenomenon. Our reading will be supplemented by videos and graphics from the presentation originally created by the Phenomenon of Man Project. There will be ample time for group discussion.
