‘Christian Hope In A Doubting World’ with Brian Grogan SJ

 ‘The best gift Christianity can offer to the world is a well-reasoned hope in the life of the world to come. We hold this treasure in trust for the world.’ – Brian Grogan SJ

The first in our series of November talks by Brian Grogan SJ will stream live on our website and on our Facebook page on Wednesday, November 4th 2020 at 8.30pm.

Brian Grogan is an Irish Jesuit, living in Dublin. He has had a lifelong scholarly interest in the issue life after death, and has been long involved in Adult Faith Formation. Now that he is older, that interest has shifted  from a notional to a real concern, as Newman would say!

Brian has written a number of items on the mystery of life after death: Where to from Here? The Christian Vision of Life after Death 2011, and To Grow in Love: A Spirituality of Ageing, Dying and Glory 2017.

Brian became involved in Knock 30 years ago and helped develop the Prayer Ministry there, or what we now call the mystical dimension of our faith: the awareness that we are limitlessly loved by God and invited into a deep divine relationship which carries us through life and death into eternal life. That is the inspiration for these talks.
