S3 EP10: Integrating Our Interspiritual Dialogues With a Lifelong Practitioner with Sr. Mary Margaret Funk

Welcome back, everyone! We’re so glad you’re joining us as we introduce our final guest of the season. It’s hard to believe how quickly this season has flown by, but we’re wrapping things up with a truly special guest in this episode. Sister Mary Margaret Funk is a Benedictine nun who has been deeply involved in interreligious dialogue and contemplative practices for decades.

Sister Meg shares her profound insights on the teachings of Father Thomas Keating, her journey through various spiritual traditions, and the importance of understanding our thoughts in relation to God. We also explore the nuances of contemplative prayer, the significance of spiritual senses, and the universal quest for Unitive Consciousness.
