Presented by Contemplative Outreach, this homily concluded an enrichment weekend by Fr. Richard Rohr and Fr. Thomas Keating, recorded Sept. 29, 2007 in Houston, TX.
Fr. Thomas describes how beauty creates a nurturing and profound receptivity and a welcoming and friendly attitude toward what is being received. Beauty comes in many forms. We need to take time to sink into the beauty that most appeals to us, to help us be receptive to the mystery of God working in all aspects of our lives. The greatest beauty is love.
