What would you expect to happen when you get Marcus Borg, Joan Chittister and John Dominic Crossan under the same room for a three-day conference? “Mysticism, Empowerment & Resistance” brought these three remarkable scholar/activist/authors to Austin, Texas in 2006.

Borg, Chittister and Crossan synthesize their work and considerable gifts into a transforming awareness that to experience the mystical presence of the sacred is to be empowered to resist the normalcy of civilization that insists on using violence and domination to achieve its brand of imperial peace. Here are compelling, insightful, and “empowering” lectures and discussions that leave seminar participants spell-bound and clamoring to see and hear more. Marcus Borg presents “Foundations, Key Terms & Notions,” “Mysticism, Empowerment & Resistance in the Bible,” and “Mysticism, Empowerment & Resistance Today.” Joan Chittister lectures on “Empowerment & Spirituality,” “Catherine of Siena,” and Franz Jagenster.” John Dominic Crossan speaks on “Mysticism: The Violent & The Non-Violent,” “Empowerment: The Individual and Community,” and “Resistance: The Negative and the Positive.” This set also includes question and answer sessions with this engaging group of speakers.
