Spei Lumina™ — Lights of Hope — is a podcast devoted to exploring Imaginal Prayer in these arduous times.

We live in a time when the secular world around us is so driven by blame, shame, division, despair, disaster, and inciting reactions amongst and between people.  In years past, some found refuge and strength in the religious world.  Today the religious world remains silent as they scramble to make their doctrines and dogmas make sense in modern times.  Too much of the religious world has come under the influence of the secular world and silently enables the actions of those in the secular world whose words, rhetoric, and intentions are destructive to human rights and advancement.

Too much energy is spent complaining about others and infuriating others by actions, words, beliefs and values not commonly shared.

We are often too quick to shame, blame and ridicule those whose actions and values are contrary to our own and too inert to dialog with those we disagree, to be compassionate with those who don’t share the same views, to befriend those who are so unlike ourselves.

We were not created to find fault, to disparage, to ridicule nor shame others.  We were created to be transformed by Love — God’s for all creation — and through our individual transformation by that Love, collectively transform the world by walking in that Light of Truth, Love, and Joy in our own journeys.

Join me, your host, Fr. Donald Knight, as we explore together imaginal prayer — day dreaming with a purpose — to help us raise our consciousness above the fray and be illuminated by Spirit on how we individually are called to be Light’s of Hope, Love, Peace, and Wholeness to all those we encounter as we advance along our spiritual journey.
