My guest today is Sam Rahberg. Sam is a Benedictine, a spiritual director, a writer, and the Director of the Spiritual Direction program at St John’s university and seminary. Sam’s work with leaders in the church around vocation and discernment, and his profound wisdom about the contemplative life, has inspired me for as long as I’ve known him. And I asked him to join me for a conversation about spiritual practice and what the contemplative spiritual tradition can offer Christian communities seeking to live as good and attentive neighbors.
In this episode we talk about what the spiritual mothers and fathers call the unitive vision, contemplation as a way of life, and the tradition of Benedictine spirituality. My conversation with Sam was so much fun and left me dreaming about contemplative communities rooted in neighborhoods and seeking Christ in the face of their neighbor.
