The Great Chain
of Being: Simplifying Our Lives
Ecology is a modern word for what medieval Franciscan scholars called "The Great Chain of Being." They predicted that if we stopped seeing God in any one link of the chain, the whole thing would fall apart.
Hear Fr. Richard Rohr,ofm, Sr. Paula Gonzalez,SC, and Tiki Kustenmacher help us reconcile religious, moral, global and local demands and challenges, and still remain contemplatives.
Available as CD, DVD, and MP3 from Mustard Seed.
The Cosmic Christ
In this teaching Fr. Richard gives a profound insight into the nature of the historical Jesus and what the resurrected Christ really means.
We are reminded that the material and spiritual worlds are part of the same universal reality. As the Body of Christ we are all called to participate in relationship with the Divine Trinity. Fr. Richard uses plain language to make this life-changing view accessible.
Available as CD and MP3 from Mustard Seed.
In the Footsteps of Francis: Awakening to Creation
Join with Fr. Richard Rohr and friends to explore a different way of living in this world: a living of life in abundance and living it in a sense of “being drawn” rather than “being driven.”
Richard explores St. Francis’ life and vision from fresh eyes, avoiding the romanticism that often obscures Francis’ real message.
Available as CD, DVD, and MP3 from Mustard Seed.
