The Stories That Make Us: An Intergenerational Gathering of Men

Reinhold Neibuhr once said, ‘Nothing worth doing can be accomplished in a single lifetime.’  Good and heroic men are generations in the making—cradled in the hearts and initiated in the arms of fathers who were cradled in the hearts and initiated in the arms of their fathers.

Norwood, Louisian (North of Baton Rouge)

Woven together, stories are the very fabric of our lives.  They tell us from where we came, speak of who we are, and dare to utter what we may become.  There is great power in the telling and retelling of our stories, vast potential for healing, growth and transformation.  Join Fr. Richard Rohr, Belden Lane, and Joel Blunk for a weekend of telling the stories that make us./p>

Sadness

Richard Rohr sums up this whole spirituality of initiation in a one liner: the young man who cannot cry is a savage, the old man who cannot laugh is a fool.

It's a privilege to speak to a group of people who, from your first hand experience in the field of healthcare, most likely know much more about the topic of sadness than I do. In my remarks this evening I will speak as a Christian but more out of my Roman Catholic tradition as I think it might be helpful to the context of sadness.
