Contemplate Lincoln

We are a non-profit hub for contemplative prayer and practice in the Christian tradition. Through this sacramental tapestry, we and our world are transformed.

Our mission is to provide a safe, participatory, and holy space to foster spiritual growth deepening our love for God, ourselves, neighbors, and all of creation. We are a hub for Christian contemplative prayer, spiritual practice, and living. In communion with others we participate in the Christ mystery through contemplative practice, learning, growing, and doing life together. As a community, we

live this out through a commitment to a daily spiritual practice, compassionate action, cultivating mature self knowledge, creation care, and growing in God’s wisdom and grace. There are a variety of spiritual disciplines one may commit to live out a rule of life.

Howard Thurman: Stillness, Contemplation, & Social Transformation

What does it mean to cultivate a contemplative life that leads to compassion, courage, and justice?

Join us for our next Contemplative Conversation Circles as we spend 8 weeks reading Jesus and the Disinherited by Howard Thurman, beginning the week of September 14.

Thurman's groundbreaking work inspired Martin Luther King Jr. and continues to invite readers into a faith rooted in love, inner freedom, and hope for a more just world. Together, we'll explore how contemplation can transform both our inner lives and the way we engage with the world around us.

We'll meet for one hour each week on Zoom in small groups where we create a welcoming space for conversation, reflection, and spiritual practice. Whether you're new to Howard Thurman or returning to his work, you're invited to journey with us.

Meeting Times (Central):
• Wednesdays at 11:00am
• Wednesdays at 1:30pm
• Thursdays at 11:00am
• Saturdays at 9:00am
