The Faber Institute, founded in Portland, OR in October 2014, is about awakening people as God does it, showing them how to intensify and to sustain inner alertness (the virtues) and training their capacities to recognize and to serve the highest good of persons who find and develop their lives within the natural world (creation) and the human world (society and culture).
We train them to become quicker to recognize and to distinguish (discernment) the false modes of being a person, persuading them to choose, and to trust, the long-tested and true paths to becoming fully alive, so that they joyfully accept their responsibilities for the common good of all – becoming “God-like” after the pattern of Jesus Christ.

The Lenten Meditations 2024: Reordering
The Lenten Meditations are an annual habit of the Faber Institute, offered in support of expanding and deepening your spiritual practice during the season of Lent. This year's Lenten Meditations, offered on each of the six Sundays of Lent, have been thoughtfully composed and presented by Tara Ludwig of the Institute.
The Meditations will contemplate deeply what exactly it is that we mean when we say that Jesus Christ has suffered for our sake. In each episode of the Meditations, we will stand with Jesus during a particular moment of his Passion to notice not only the pain he experiences, but what he does with the pain, and together we will wonder if perhaps God relates to suffering very differently than we do.
May the time you spend side by side with the suffering Christ this Lent bring you ever closer to his beautiful heart. -
The Night School with St. Augustine
In Part III of this Night School series on Angels: A Forgotten Friendship, we explore how it was that Angels became more fully integrated into the theological (not only the biblical) understanding of the Christian Church. Someone of the enormous capabilities of St. Augustine (353-430 CE) was the one to do this.
