The Cultural Enterprise invites you to hear from author and guest speaker Curtis Chang on Thursday, Oct. 27. We’ll host a faculty coffee at 3 p.m., during which he’ll discuss his recently published work on the theology of organizations, and a 7 p.m. public lecture on post-partisan faith.
Both events are in Canyon Commons, and refreshments will be served.
Faculty Coffee
Chang makes the provocative claim that human institutions participate in the Imago Dei. He argues that this insight is deeply grounded in Scripture and theology. Moreover, this central insight opens up a range of practical insights and motivations for the organizational life of all Christians, especially those working in “secular” entities.
Come hear Chang share about a robust theology of institutions, and bring your questions and thoughts!
Public Lecture: “When Politics Strains Relationships”
Have political divisions caused tension in the relationships in your family, school, church, work or community? Learn how to become a “post-partisan Christian” and how this new identity can heal our relationships – and hopefully our society. A livestream will be available here.
