This evening will explore how meditation leads us into the state of radical openness described in 1 Thessalonians 5: 16-18 as ‘praying without ceasing’ – and how a prayerful outlook helps us to become and remain fully ourselves in a world that often reduces life to quantifiable outcomes. Selected Russian writers will provide us with wisdom for the journey.
