About this episode
Tami Simon revisits her powerful conversation with Sister Joan Chittister at Mount St. Benedict’s Monastery—exploring enlightenment in Christian tradition, the sacrament of the present moment, and what it means to see the world through God’s eyes.
This is a conversation about what a lifetime of monastic practice reveals, the electricity of divine presence, and how struggle itself becomes the crucible for transformation.
