Event Details
A scholar of world religions, Huston Smith says that Jesus and the Buddha were the only two individuals in history who caused people to ask “What are you?” rather than “Who are you?” On this retreat, we will examine how the religions that have emerged from the teachings of these two spiritual giants can mutually enrich one another. With both conceptual learning and contemplative practice, this retreat will explore how interfaith dialogue moves beyond an exchange of ideas to practice and compassionate action.

Led by Clay Williams.
