I would also be interested in leading seminars, discussions, or giving talks on the difference between a Christian engagement with pain, suffering, and adversity and Stoicism, how to incorporate ascetic, mystical, and monastic practices into the living room, classroom, and office, the leadership wisdom of Gregory the Great’s Pastoral Care and Augustine’s Rule, and how a covenantal outlook is what the world needs.
If you would be interested in having me speak to your church or group or teach a class, please fill out the form below. I enjoy speaking to groups of all sizes, and enjoy a variety of formats, especially dialogues, workshops, and panels.
Also, I am happily open to entertaining proposals about how I can best serve you.
