We will have a discussion with Beverly Lanzetta, PhD., a gifted and prolific author. She is a teacher and a modern mystic who is a visionary way-shower in the New Monasticism movement sweeping the globe. Her work is truly interspiritual, welcoming people of all religious, spiritual and ethical persuasions (and those with no formal affiliation, tradition or community) to the table of the Sacred.  

Beverly will be speaking with us about her new book, A New Silence: Spiritual Practices and Formation for the Monk Within (Blue Sapphire Books, 2020). 

​"A NEW SILENCE focuses on the inner transformation and spiritual practices that guide us to live for the Holy and for the good of creation. It is a practical companion for anyone seeking to be a monastic or contemplative presence in the world. Offered for explorers on the edge—for those who are between religions, those who have abandoned faith but yet seek, those who are interspiritual, or those who are rooted in their faith tradition and are going deeper—this is both path and accompaniment for the journey. Included are contemplative practices, journal reflections, meditative exercises, and examples of a daily schedule, personal vow, rule of life, and ceremony of profession that stabilize and affirm a new monastic way of life."* (Source: Amazon.com)

We will talk with Beverly about what it might look like for any of us to be a monk in the world today, its pertinence and importance. We will explore her views on Global Spirituality, as well. We welcome participants' questions during the webinar.


Whether or not you belong to a religion, or are uninterested in religion, I wish to share with you that there is a divine path interior to your being, an organic constellation of wisdom imprinted into your soul. If you have the courage to advance into the mystery of your own solitude, you will discover it for yourself. Composed of its eternal nature, you cannot be lost, abandoned, or forgotten. In the secret teachings of love you will be guided on a spiritual journey that forges a new path of holiness in your being and in the world. ~ Beverly Lanzetta

About our guest:

Picture
Beverly Lanzetta, Ph.D. is a theologian, contemplative scholar and teacher, and the author of many groundbreaking books on emerging global spirituality and new monasticism, including A New Silence: Spiritual Practices and Formation for the Monk Within, The Monk Within: Embracing a Sacred Way of Life, Radical Wisdom: A Feminist Mystical Theology, and Foundations in Spiritual Direction. A monk of peace, she is dedicated to a vision of theological openness and spiritual nonviolence; her work has won praise for its wisdom, eloquence, and mystical insight and is considered to be a major contribution to what theologian Ursula King called “a feminine mystical way for the 21st century.” Dr. Lanzetta has taught theology at Villanova University, Prescott College, and Grinnell College and has started a number of religious and monastic initiatives including the Desert Interfaith Church, Interfaith Theological Seminary, Hesychia School of Spiritual Direction, and the Community of a New Monastic Way. She is a much-sought-after mentor for the new generation, including the “spiritual but not religious” and new monastics alike, as she brings with her forty years of experience as a guide to answering the universal call to contemplation.
