Learning as a Lifelong Commitment
Learning is a lifelong commitment that requires curiosity, growth, and understanding. It is not a destination or an acquisition of the right answer, but a process of expansion and wisdom. At Awaken, learning is seen as a continuous journey that encompasses various lenses through which we interpret the world, such as consumerism, nationalism, capitalism, and privilege. It is important to recognize and name these lenses to gain a deeper understanding of ourselves, our neighbors, the world, and God. Awaken offers opportunities for learning through events like sacred sites tours, learning labs, orchard studies, and book studies, providing a space for engagement and transformation.
