Contemplate This! Interview with Richard Rohr

This is the very first interview in a new podcast, "Contemplate This! Conversations on the Contemplative Life with Tom Bushlack." Our first interview is with Fr. Richard Rohr, a Catholic priest and member of the Franciscans, the religious order established by St. Francis of Assissi in the 13th century.

He is the founder of the Center for Action and Contemplation in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and a leading teacher in the Living School, a program begun by the Center for Action and Contemplation that has introduced and trained hundreds of contemplative activists in the Christian tradition, empowering them to bring contemplation as a ground of peace and deeper meaning into their work to create a more just world. He is also the author of numerous books and recorded teachings.

Reviews

Thank you for posting this, I really enjoyed listening to the interview and what Father Richard spoke about reflected so much of my spiritual experience and journey, as well as giving me inspiration and impulse for new practice, study and just living in this, our, world.

I enjoyed this very interesting and pleasant conversation. Thank you. God bless.

Very informative and interesting. I am just recently exploring contemplative Christianity and this was immensely helpful. Thank you.

The greatest take away for me in this conversation is to love God is to love all creation.

I found this to be a very insightful discussion which was filled with so much food for thought. Thank you for taking the time to add it to Insight timer. Additionally, after reading the many reviews, as a woman in my sixties, I took no offense to what he said about women in my age group. I do not feel that he meant anything derogatory by his comments.
