]]> In a time when public life often feels captive to partisan loyalties, Dr. Rusty Reno, editor of First Things magazine, invites us to consider a deeper vision of Christian engagement in the public square.

‍Drawing from the life and teaching of Jesus, Dr. Reno will explore how faith offers wisdom for navigating today’s political and cultural challenges without being defined by party lines.

This gathering is designed especially for lay Christian leaders who long to think biblically about current events and the common good. Together, we will reflect on how the church can speak with clarity, conviction, and hope in a fractured age.

‍Join us for an evening of thoughtful teaching and conversation that points to a distinctly Christian way of engaging the world.
