In this conversation Denis will lead us in an exploration of some of the big questions. Questions related to faith in doctrine and/or God; is the notion of a personal God central to Carmelite spirituality?; the problem of evil; suffering and death; creation/climate change; the hierarchy of life e.g. is it only human life that makes it to heaven or will our pets come with us? Denis will bring a Carmelite perspective to our pondering.
