Click here News from New MexicoA Monthly Newsletter from the Center for Action and Contemplation Explore the Mystery and Transformation of Liminal SpaceA liminal or threshold experience can take many forms: a time of birth, a transition from life to death, or even a global pandemic that shuts down the status quo and forces us into silence and solitude. Liminal spaces, as Richard Rohr writes in the new issue of Oneing, enable us “to see beyond ourselves to the broader and more inclusive world that lies before us. When we embrace liminality, we choose hope over sleepwalking, denial, or despair. The world around us becomes again an enchanted universe.” Oneing: Liminal Space features Richard Rohr, Kelsea Habecker, Tom Gunning, Felicia Murrell, Alison Barr, Josh Radnor, Byron McMillan, Kirsten Oates, Brandan J. Robertson, James Danaher, Russ Hudson, Sheryl Fullerton, Michael Demokovich, Christian Peele, Anne and Terry Symens-Bucher, and Lee Staman. Order a print or digital copy of the latest issue of Oneing Oneing, the biannual literary journal from the Center for Action and Contemplation, is renowned for its diverse and deep exploration of mysticism and culture. Established in 2013 and grounded in Richard Rohr’s work and lineage, the journal is named for Julian of Norwich’s description of the mystical encounter between God and the soul.

Purchase your copy of What Do We Do With Evil? What Do We Do With Evil? invites us to encounter evil with a contemplative, nondual mind and to reflect on how we too are complicit in the social evils pervading our lives. Rohr presents no easy solutions, but leaves readers with principles and a process for resisting evil with contemplation and love. The Mystery of DeathA new edition of a long-out-of-print contemplative classic with introduction and commentary by Cynthia Bourgeault. What precisely happens at the time of death is a question that theologians have struggled over for centuries but have never answered satisfactorily. The response to this question that Ladislaus Boros gives in his monumental book is that in death we meet Christ fully for the first time and in doing so attain to full consciousness and freedom. In her introduction and commentary, Cynthia Bourgeault describes Boros as one of the cornerstones of her own spiritual understanding, representing a necessary link to understanding the radical theology of Teilhard de Chardin. “It remains an authentic example of visionary theology at its most sublime, with a message that is at once challenging, timeless, and deeply hopeful."
