When: On Zoom Nov 17, 2020 7:00 PM EST
Join us for a conversation on St. Augustine with a distinguished panel engaging the questions posed by the multiple challenges of 2020. How can Augustine’s pastoral response to the sack of Rome speak to the fear and anxiety from the global pandemic? What political idolatries of today might Augustine diagnose? How might Augustine’s understanding of “exile” connect to the experiences of minority communities in the United States? How can Augustine’s thought be a bridge between different Christian traditions?
