The Old Will Dream, the Young See Visions: Renewal of the Mystical (Part One)
. . . . . . .
Guest Teacher: Kent Dobson is a wilderness guide, podcaster and author. He worked for the church as a pastor, and at C3 as the lead teacher. He cares about questions of the Soul, the mystery of the Divine, and about a culture more connected to the Sacred.
Musician: Spencer LaJoye (they/them) is an East Coast singer/songwriter from the Midwest making queer indie folk music for everyone. The 2021 Kerrville Songwriting Competition winner spins crystalline vocals through a loop pedal while strumming an acoustic guitar in charming, banter-heavy performances that keep audiences laughing one moment and weeping the next.

Reading/Teaching: Kent Dobson
In mysticism that love of truth which we saw as the beginning of all philosophy leaves the merely intellectual sphere, and takes on the assured aspect of a personal passion. Where the philosopher guesses and argues, the mystic lives and looks; and speaks, consequently, the disconcerting language of first-hand experience, not the neat dialectic of the schools. Hence whilst the Absolute of the metaphysicians remains a diagram —impersonal and unattainable— the Absolute of the mystics is lovable, attainable, alive. – Evelyn Underhill, Mysticism
