The culture around us has changed and, as Christians, we are often at a loss of how to respond to such changes. Thankfully, we are not the first to encounter such a challenge. Join us as we learn from the wisdom of early Christians and from the various ways that they engaged the non-Christian culture around them. Guest speaker Dr. Stephen Presley leads this dinner seminar, with panel discussion by Dr. Alex Fogleman and Canon Dr. Jonathan Bailes.
Speakers:
- Dr. Stephen Presley works with pastors, educators, and students to help promote a positive vision of religion for the public square. He specializes in drawing from great Christian thinkers (especially in the early church) to help Christians navigate this cultural moment today.
- Dr. Alex Fogleman is a scholar of patristic theology, catechesis, St. Augustine, and theological accounts of human flourishing. He is an author, professor, lecturer, and program director with Baylor University.
