SUMMARY:Lifting the Veil
DESCRIPTION:Join Malcolm Guite for a one of a kind gathering with his friends:\nDr. Martin Shaw\, Steve Bell\, Stephen Crotts\, Anna Friedrich\, Bruce Herman\, Pete Peterson\, Joshua Luke Smith\, & more! \nMalcolm Guite is a celebrated English poet\, priest\, musician\, and storyteller of epic proportions. His body of work serves a personal calling to kindle the imagination for Christ and invite others into the wondrous journey with him. \nHe has sown this mission into many books exploring religion and the arts\, poetry collections\, and writings about our favorite British authors.

This gathering will invite you to move with him beyond theory and toward practice\, beyond simply recognizing beauty and toward creating it.
