The Cushion and The Cross

Join us for a calm morning of mindfulness and meditation exploring the life of Jesus of Nazareth through a historical lens. This gathering looks at Jesus not as a divine figure, but as a real human being who walked the earth and whose actions consistently reflected presence, attention, and embodied awareness.

Rather than doctrine or belief, we focus on examples of how Jesus listened, withdrew, confronted authority, responded to suffering, and remained grounded in the midst of conflict. These are not miracles or metaphysics, but human acts of presence practiced under actual social and political pressure. Through reflection, open discussion, and silent meditation, we explore what these moments can teach us about being present in our own lives.
