Fall Speaker Series: Exciting monthly speakers on great topics! Event open to ALL ages!
Tuesday, August 24th - 7pm in the church - Dr. Regis Martin (Professor of Theology at Franciscan University of Steubenville) will speak on "The Religious Sense: Seeking God in the Current Cultural Situation" - What is the Meaning of Everything? The desire for God is written on the human heart and therefore the search for God is what most fundamentally defines the human being. This is the "Religious Sense," which helps make sense of the culture.
Monday, September 13th - 7pm in the church - Dr. Stephen Miletic (Professor of Theology at Franciscan University of Steubenville) will speak on "The Bible and Culture: Biblical Spirituality" - Spirituality is a personal encounter with god. How can you have a subjective experience of an objective reality? What is Biblical Spirituality? This lecture examines the Interior, Religious, and Spiritual Life and how this life interacts with the culture.
Monday, October 4th - 7pm in the church - Mike Aquilina (Executive Vice President of the St. Paul Center for Biblical Theology) will speak on "The Family on Mission: Lessons from the Early Church" - Early Christians lived in a thoroughly pagan culture that did not respect their values and looked down on their practices. Sound familiar? You might be surprised to see that the transformation of a culture begins in the home.
Tuesday, November 9th - 7pm in the church - Dr. Eugene Gan (Professor of Communication Arts at Franciscan University of Steubenville) will speak on "iCatholic: A Practical Guide to Modern Media" - How should we engage media in a meda-saturated culture?
