Presenter(s): Jonathan Ellerby

Topic: Beyond Feel-Good Spirituality?

Cobb Institute has appreciated the work of Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat through the community created by their Spirituality and Practice website for resourcing spirituality explorations. Jay McDaniel, who writes “Process Musings” for the site, invites the new S&P Executive Director, Jonathan Ellerby, into dialogue about emerging themes in spirituality work. For a world in need, does spirituality have a place in creating compassionate communities and ecological civilization? Dr. Ellerby brings to the discussion, not only his academic background as a Ph.D. scholar of religious traditions, but also his exploration of multiple native spiritualities, his writing of the best-selling Return to the Sacred: Ancient Pathways to Spiritual Awakening, and his practical workshops. You may further explore Dr. Ellerby’s journeys in holistic wellness and spirituality via videos on his website, where you may also download free his book Religious Experience.

Jay McDaniel has written extensively about the Brussats’ “Wheel of Spirituality” on his Open Horizons website. Explore with us future hopes for Spirituality and Practice as they move forward with Dr. Ellerby’s leadership!
