2023 November 18. Who Speaks, Marsha Sinetar. Marsha discusses secular solitude as her dwelling place, in which she connects with the source of creation and spirit of life, which “speaks to her” as she discusses in this chapter. Her spirituality is very grounded, ordinary, and relational; her website pictures her in a cow pasture. We’ll explore the experience of love revealed by an attitude of inward poverty, as well as the self transcendence she discovered in St. Augustine’s Confessions and in John Muir’s immersion in Nature. We’ll reflect on “Who Speaks” to us? Click here for the chapter reading. In addition to the chapter reading, please review the additional information and discussion questions linked here.
