"Listening to the Spirit of the Land: Life Lessons from the Native Way" with acclaimed author Kent Nerburn
Join us for a powerful and thought-provoking evening with Kent Nerburn, renowned author, spiritual teacher, and respected voice on Native American culture and spirituality. In this special presentation, Listening to the Spirit of the Land: Life Lessons from the Native Way, Kent draws on nearly 30 years of living and working in Native communities to share timeless insights and teachings from the First Peoples of this land.
Guided by the wisdom of a Shoshone Elder who once said, “Do not begrudge the white man his presence on this land. Though he doesn’t know it yet, he came here to learn from us,” Kent explores what that learning can look like—and how it might help shape a more thoughtful, compassionate, and spiritually grounded future for us all.
