Masculile Spirituality and Why Men Need Initiation

This teaching on CD or DVD offers you Richard Rohr's two basic talks on masculine spirituality.

In the first teaching Masculine Spirituality Fr. Richard poses the question: Why do men struggle so often with the spiritual? Many flat out reject the inner journey, mistaking it for being soft or weak. The need for real masculine spirituality, one that speaks to man's true core, is explored in this introductory teaching.

Men and Power

The issue of power is real in every man's life, and he must find a good way to use it, otherwise he will make a toxic use of power.

We need to recognize the paradoxical nature of power -- it is both good and bad. The challenge for us is to find a non-abusive use of power.

Fr. Richard teaches six stages of consciousness associated with power. This is a spiritual journey toward true power that the world does not know.

Men Matter Series: A Quest for the True Self.

Father Richard shares his years of first-hand experience with male initiation in traditional cultures around the world, where he heard the elders say, " You'd better teach your boys well or your boys wont become men." Listen to what this message means for men, women and children today.

He shares insights into who a mentor is, what a mentor does, and the nature of the mentoring relationship.
