Conviviality with Laurence Freeman OSB on WCCM+ | Risk of Living Together Series First Talk

December 19, 2025 • 71 mins
Being convivial means friendliness, liveliness, hospitableness which are basic elements of happiness. We assume conviviality is intrinsic to human nature and interactions with others and if it breaks down it feels that something has gone wrong. Many people today feel that their life with others is becoming less convivial because of the suspicions, fear, prejudice, competitiveness which characterise a techno-scientific world where t...

The Future of Religion with Fr Laurence Freeman

December 16, 2025 • 2 mins
Is religion finished? Or is it simply evolving? For too long, the role of faith has been dismissed as a pastime, an escape, or worse, a cause of conflict. But like art and music, we are hardwired for transcendence—and we can't be fully human without it. That changes the question: What is the Future of Religion? As contemplatives, we believe the answer lies in rediscovering the mystical core shared by every great tradition. Joi...

Our Conversation is in Heaven with Laurence Freeman for WCCM+

November 19, 2025 • 9 mins
Authentic spirituality is not above justice or human suffering. Spiritual truth is reflected in the gritty realities of the world whether it is honoured or denied. Feelings and relationships are part of our spiritual path but so too are social and political responsibilities. We are a single body, embodied in Christ. The old translation of St Paul`s phrase our conversation is in heaven sounds strange to us today. But reflect how our...

The Muscle of Attention

October 31, 2025 • 1 min
Fr Laurence’s reflecting on one of the passages of his newly launched book ‘Tasting Wisdom’: "Without attention all these essential human aspects of growth, focusing, listening, tending towards the needs of others and our own needs, learning what we don't know, and understanding in a deeper and richer way, the mystery that we are part of... all of this growth process can be lost if we lose the art of attention." #wccmbooks #laure...

Joy Is Deeper Than Desire

September 17, 2025 • 6 mins
Meditation doesn’t destroy desire, but it does transform desire. It puts you into touch with what you really want. In quite a radical way of sorting and simplifying ourselves, it puts you back into touch with your basic need, which is your basic desire. Then joy springs up.
