Renewing our postures to truly listen?
Listening is not just a skill or a method: it is an attitude of the heart.
Renewing our postures to truly listen?
Reserve my spot
Learning to listen "with the ear of the heart" means allowing Christ to listen within us and through us.
- Sharing in small groups to deepen the experience of mutual listening.
- Guided practical exercises to adjust our listening postures.
- Time for prayer, Scripture reading, and silence, to allow Christ to listen within us.

From 15/02/2026 6:00 PM to 17/02/2026 2:00 PM
"Each morning the Lord awakens my ear to listen." (Isaiah 50:4)
- Every day, we all find ourselves in situations of listening: to others, to ourselves, to God. But truly listening requires much more than techniques.
- This session invites you to revisit your inner postures and concrete practices to discover or rediscover a way of listening that opens, welcomes, and transforms.
- Renewing our way of listening means allowing Christ to dwell in our silences, awaken our senses, and cultivate within us an available and compassionate presence.
- A journey where heart, mind, and body align so that listening becomes prayer, relationship, and encounter.
