In the 1960s, theologian Karl Rahner predicted ‘the Christian of the future will be a mystic or will not be a Christian anymore.’ Rahner’s future is our present, and what a polarised and fractured present it is! In this session we seek to de-mystify Christian mysticism by considering the implications of the mystical experience of the divine as equally present in everything and everyone for our present global situation.

Engaging Your Faith is a series of short online presentations that invite participants to reflect on what it means to be people of faith in the contemporary world. Experienced lecturers from Catholic Theological College present on a variety of topics, including philosophy, Lumen Gentium, spirituality, biblical studies, Christian meditation, theology, interfaith relations, future technology, and science and religion.
