Lerita Coleman Brown, Ph.D.

In his book, Meditations of the Heart, mystic and theologian Howard Thurman shares his insights from having quietly and deeply communed with the Eternal. Dr. Brown’s book, When the Heart Speaks, Listen, illustrates how hearts are available for solace and overflow with divine guidance. Both books offer an invitation for deeper listening. Our enrichment day will include contemplative prayer, readings, silence, and a guided session of active imagination, to explore the spiritual wisdom of the mystical heart.
