Join Anne Snyder, editor-in-chief of Comment Magazine, to explore the subversive possibilities a Christian humanist approach offers as we navigate the destabilizing and dangerously seductive currents of this late modern moment. Because we are in a "time between eras when no one knows what’s next," Anne contends that "we need one another to recalibrate, to reflect, and to shape a hopeful future." In that spirit, she will introduce a new Christian humanist manifesto and theory of change to help us prepare for whatever comes next.
Anne's presentation will interweave history, hope, and insights about our post-election wariness. We are 75-years post World War II, and the raft of institutions built to protect peace and human dignity are now often painted as enemies. Many people feel increasingly anxious and unmoored, and liberalism is on the defensive. Conflicting ideologies divide neighbors and families. Yet, social renewal is possible. How? Anne's perspective and Christian humanist manifesto will address vital questions and concerns shared by people across our community and nation, regardless of their political affiliation or religious affections.
