This is an adventurous exercise of greater depth and reflectivity than is normal for most people. Each of the Tuesday evenings (the 3rd Tuesday of each month), Fr. Ganz welcomes into our gathering each time a profound thinker, explorer, philosopher, painter, poet, theologian or mystic from the ancient or nearer past. For example, he may invite Aristotle (4th century BCE) to attend, and through some short and penetrating texts from his writings to give us his best thoughts on friendship. This monthly habit offered by the Faber Institute is meant to be enjoyable, startling at times (surprised by the wisdom we have available to us if we know how to read such authors), and to be an experience of deep thought skillfully invited and engagingly presented.
For The Night School Series III, Session IV, Fr. Ganz welcomes into our gathering St. John of the Cross.
