Have you ever wanted to explore what you think, why you think it, and how to express it, whether the topic is existential, religious, or political?
Please join Mtr Laurie, Mtr Deborah and Dr. Scott Hill (PhD in Philosophy) as we explore how to think ethically and charitably together as Christians in the public sphere. Four sessions of Civil Discourse / Gracious Dis/agreement have completed. A second four-week-long installment will begin in September. Watch here for the announcement of the specific dates.
