The Daily Bruin

Join us today (Monday) for a special Theology Club meeting where Dr. Ron Clark will present a session on healthy masculinity and guiding young men to spiritual maturity. We will meet from noon to 12:50 p.m. in Hoover 104.

This is a presentation focused on Proverbs 31, schools, and toxic and healthy masculinity in the Bible. The presentation also makes applications to our work in ministry with abuse, masculinity, and misogyny. All are welcome to join. Lunch is free, and non-Bauman chapel credit is available.

Remember: Wednesday, Feb. 26, is your chance to hear Newberg Mayor Bill Rosacker’s conversation with George Fox’s own Rick Muthiah on the topic “Trump So Far: Good, Bad or Indifferent?”

Bill and Rick will continue a conversation they began in January about their different views of the new Trump administration’s actions. Then attenders, sitting in small groups at tables, will have their own versions of this conversation.

Come to see if the people at your table can hear each other, learn to summarize each other’s views accurately and fairly, and build stronger personal connections across political differences.

The event will be in Canyon Commons from 7 to 8:45 p.m. For more information, contact Ron Mock at rmock@georgefox.edu.
