Event Category Archives: Writing Workshop

This is the event type for writing workshops.

Regenerate Your Spirit, Generate New Writing

Breath, rhythm, movement, deep listening—these are the skills fundamental to writing that are often ignored. Inspired by Genesis 1:2: “And the breath of God swept over the face of the waters,” this workshop will immerse participants in exercises that can help writers transform “wild and waste” into form and beauty. Guided breathing, movement, rhythm, and listening experiences will flow into related writing opportunities. Join us at Regenerate Your Spirit, Generate New Writing to refresh your spirit, create fresh work, true your voice, and deepen your writing practice.
Registration is closed: all workshop spaces have been filled.

Writing Toward God: The Sacred for the Perplexed

Feeling stuck, perplexed, timid, or fearful about writing about God/The Sacred directly? You’re not alone. While 19th-century theologians challenged the view of God as a supernatural Person, that view still dominates popular Western imaginations (fundamentalist, atheist, and liberal). To re-envision God/The Sacred for our time, we need to follow visionary poets and storytellers. Inspired by modern and contemporary writers who approach God/The Sacred in unexpected ways, we’ll explore writing not about but toward God/The Sacred.
