Description
Dr. Zimmerman discussed the importance of place in encounters with the divine. Christian mystical traditions, including Norbertine traditions, have long taught a theology and practice of rooted and interconnected spirituality. In exploring the idea that natural environments such as midwestern prairies are themselves a place of transforming spiritual practice, Dr. Zimmerman helped us all attend to how we may cultivate living encounters with the holy and how to engage reverently within our natural habitats.
