The Meditatio Centre is proud to host the launch of Tasting Wisdom, the new book by Laurence Freeman, OSB.
For more than a decade, members of the World Community for Christian Meditation have received Daily Wisdom – a brief yet profound reflection from Laurence Freeman, a Benedictine monk and the community’s spiritual guide. In just a few sentences each day, these wisdom texts offer a touchstone for a more mindful, reflective, and less reactive approach to life’s challenges. In this carefully curated collection, readers will find 366 of the most resonant reflections, chosen with the help of Daily Wisdom recipients. Designed to inspire throughout the year, this book offers daily inspiration. These short and powerful texts can be returned to again and again-whether to begin the day with clarity, find a moment of stillness, or seek perspective in a restless world. Accompanied by Laurence Freeman’s evocative photography, these pages invite you into his own daily rhythm of wisdom, presence, and peace.
Come and hear Fr Laurence speak about the book and join us for a period of meditation. Books will be available to purchase and Laurence will sign copies.
At 6.00 pm, we will continue with a dialogue between Fr Laurence and Dr Reza Shah Kazemi on The Wisdom of Compassion in Islam, part of the WCCM series The Risk of Living Together.
We are delighted to offer you this opportunity to meet with Fr Laurence and Reza in person and learn from these great teachers.
