Dr. Tom Schwanda: Experiencing the Presence of God (Reprise)

We're returning to a soul-filling conversation with Dr. Tom Schwanda ahead of his summer class, "Experiencing the Presence: Walking with God All Day Long," which will be running from July 13-17. Two years ago, he spoke with Claire and Christina about the joys of soul recreation, enjoying God, contemplation and meditation. Drawing on the rich history of the church and artistic engagement with Scripture, Tom invites us to slow down and notice God in our lives. He also tackles the distractions that keep us from God. If you are longing for this kind of rest, consider joining us this summer.Tom's BioAfter serving as a pastor for eighteen years, Tom Schwanda taught Christian spirituality at Wheaton College until his retirement. He now serves as Senior Fellow for Christian Spirituality at the C. S. Lewis Institute and continues to teach Doctor of Ministry courses at several seminaries. He is a trained spiritual director and has published widely. His most recent publication is Whitefield on the Christian Life: New Birth to Enjoy God (Crossway, 2025). His current project involves compiling evening hymns and prayers on sleep and insomnia from across the centuries.Regent College PodcastThanks for listening.
