Imagine a life free of worry and anxiety.

What if we could find strength to go through any difficulty? What if we could learn to love… even our enemies?

Jesus said that a whole new way of life is possible for those who would follow his way. With the Beatitudes Jesus invites us to move beyond our first instincts to embrace the deeper reality of the kingdom of God— nine new postures for life that can change us and our world.

We’ve learned to live from a mentality of anxiety and greed, but what if this is a world of abundance? We’ve learned to live as if there is no option but despair, but what if solace and comfort are near? We’ve learned to live by striving, competing, and comparing, but what if we all have equal dignity and worth?

In this workshop/retreat we will explore the Beatitudes through group and individual exercises and practices.

Cost: 20€ per person – Registration includes coffee breaks, lunch on Saturday, and a copy of Mark’s latest book: The Ninefold Path of Jesus: Hidden Wisdom of the Beatitudes
