Listening to the Heartbeat of God
Location
The Abbey
About
Facilitator: Dr Cath Connelly
One of the core metaphors of a Celtic spirituality is the image of the beloved disciple John, leaning his head onto Jesus’ breast at the Last Supper, ‘listening to the heartbeat of God’. What of our own heart? What do we hear when we truly listen? What is our core resonance through which we hear God’s voice? What is it that we really want to hear the Holy One say to us? Cath Connelly will open up these topics and more as we come to discover the heartbeat of God resonating through each one of us.
