This seminar is designed to examine questions about community, faith, place, and how we understand culture. Competing paradigms exist, some towards withdrawal from the dominant culture and others towards its redemption, and perhaps we can see just how different or similar these views might be. Come join us. Snacks and refreshments will be provided.
