My project is to construct a theology within which a Jungian based spiritual practice of dream work and examination of synchronicities can be integrated to help facilitate transformation. I seek to bring this to people of faith and others who are seeking. I am working on constructing a theology that will match my experience of the sacred.

I encourage you to jump in right away and get your feet wet by simply sharing a link or article that has meaning for you or perhaps by commenting on others' posts, asking a question, or sharing some of your own thoughts or work.Your work in dreams and process does indeed look fascinating and I'm sure anything you can share with the community will be of great interest.

Welcome Sheri,
Curiously enough, my PhD work involves the interrelationship between process theology and depth psychology. Apparently Claremont is the center of this thought at this time. Would really enjoy hearing more about your studies. Am currently enjoying works by Cobb, Epperly, and Keller. Any other suggestions??Just came back from a conference in North Carolina that was focused upon Jung/Christian thinking related to synchronicity.
Glad you found and decided to join the Alliance (obviously for more reasons than organizational!!). The Alliance is a rich blend of folks new to and well seasoned in depth psychological thought and practice. Within the many blogs, forums, and groups you may find much upon which to comment, question, and add. Again, welcome, and I really would enjoy a dialogue to hear more about your work.
Ed
