    Fear, Mist, and Monsters - Job: Chaos, Monsters, & Unification

    Class 4 In the Book of Job, we hear God ask, “Can you pull in Leviathan with a fishhook or tie down its tongue with a rope? Can you put a cord through its nose or pierce its jaw with a hook?" (Job 41:1) The Leviathan is just one of the metaphorical chaos monsters that are mentioned in the book and they show us just how unknowable the whole universe is. In Job, we learn that true union with God is a STAGE of spiritual development and not a one-time STATE. But we are asked to enter into the mystery of God’s wisdom even further as we learn to let go of our preconceived expectations of life.

These things can feel like metaphorical monsters lurking in the shadows and mist of a murky reality.  It can seem wherever we turn, there are people who can only seem to offer Hallmark-esque platitudes and even toxic positivity in response to the actual help our souls desire. The Biblical Wisdom tradition takes the opposite approach to pain and suffering. Through Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, and Job (three of the classic Wisdom books in the Bible), we can find a pattern that has been time-tested to help us find deep growth, even when we're facing the things we fear most in this life. Taking an in-depth academic and spiritual approach to these three Book of the Bible, we can learn to grow in wisdom and hope.

    Fear, Mist, and Monsters - Ecclesiastes: Smoke & Illumination

    Class 3 In Ecclesiastes 1:1, we hear, “vanity of vanities! All is vanity.” The word for “Vanity” in Hebrew can also be translated as smoke or mist. In this Book, we hear a wise voice ask just why is it that bad things happen to good people, and how are we to learn to dwell in the mysterious reality that we may never fully know the answer to that question on this side of the veil. This powerful volume in the Biblical tradition teaches us maturity and illumination as we walk the path of wisdom.

    Fear, Mist, and Monsters - Proverbs: Fear & Purgation

    Class 2 In Proverbs 9:10 we hear that, “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.” In the Biblical wisdom tradition, the most terrifying thing seems to be chaos--a world that has no meaning and where the good suffer but the bad succeed. But Proverbs shows us that the “fear of God” actually leads us to discern God’s order and how we can avoid most chaos by living our values.

    Fear, Mist, and Monsters - Introduction to Wisdom

    Class 1 What does Biblical wisdom even look like, and how is it a mystical path of spiritual maturation? This class will give us an introduction to both the 3-fold mystical path of the classic Christian tradition and why mystics have been using it to face the “dark night of the soul” for generations.
