Fr. Vincent’s book, Contemplating Christ: The Gospels and the Interior Life was recommended by Fr. Thomas Keating for everyone on the spiritual journey. In 2019 he spoke to our community on the topic of Asceticism. This February, he will help us explore our theme of reading reality through a contemplative approach to scripture.
“A contemplative reading is embodied insofar as we realize the gospels are not only told to us but, more important, told through us. They are not merely iterations of past events but narratives that speak to one’s own interior encounter with God --or, rather, God’s encounter with us.” Vincent Pizzuto
Fr. Vincent will engage our minds and hearts through a close look at brotherly love in the Parable of the Good Samaritan. He will also discuss the Wayless Way and Meister Eckhart’s fresh take on the familiar tale of two sisters - Martha and Mary.
The Rev. Vincent Pizzuto is an Episcopal priest and professor of New Testament and Christian mysticism at the Jesuit University of San Francisco. He is a long-time practitioner of Centering Prayer and was a student of Fr. Thomas Keating’s work. Fr. Vincent also founded the contemplative Christian community New Skellig, and serves as vicar of St. Columba’s Episcopal Church and Retreat House in Inverness, California. These two communities now coexist under his leadership for the purpose of advancing contemplative Christianity.
