Monday Afternoons 1:00 – 3:00
This course is a study of the sacred mythological traditions of world religions and how ancient and contemporary myths impact faith and mysticism. We will examine the thinking of Joseph Campbell, Karen Armstrong, Evelyn Underhill, Carl Jung, Howard Thurman, Kahil Gibran, Rumi, Richard Rohr, and others. “All stories have symbolic meaning, hidden wisdom that illuminates the soul’s yearnings to go home to its beloved…mythology allows us to reconnect with a dimension beyond ordinary times….” Jonathan Young
