<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>July 19-21, 2013</strong><br /><strong> Fr. Bruno Barnhart, OSB Cam</strong><br /><strong> The Wisdom of the West</strong></p>
<p>The Christian Wisdom tradition, from its first expressions in the New Testament writings, opens to us the personal, experiential and participatory dimensions of faith in Christ. Within this tradition two complementary currents, the 'Eastern' stream of interiority and divine union, and the 'Western' stream which gradually branches out in a widening variety of activities in the world, emerged. We shall reflect on Christian Wisdom in both its 'Eastern' and its emerging 'Western' expressions, and on the presence - and invitation - of the Event of Christ in our world and in our lives.</p>
