NewGround 2026 Exploring Blind Spots & Biases Film Screening Series Presents: The Other (Co-Spon)

It is the nature of human beings to create stories. Yet, when it comes to our own lives, when we tell ourselves our own stories – whether by way of resume, family history, screenplay or any other form of autobiography – we also record our relationship with our own self. Spiritual biography is different.  In this short course, based on the method created by Kathleen Dowling Singh in The Grace in Living, we will engage, together and separately, in recording our encounters with the sacred, using them as lenses through which to understand our evolving relationship with the Divine. Please commit to attending the whole series of classes.
