Our friends at Western Theological Seminary are hosting the Faith and Illness Initiative, an interdisciplinary “think tank” hosted by the Girod Chair at WTS. Each fall, they bring together scholars, pastors, medical professionals, and students to discover a theology of vocation and virtue for Christians living with chronic illness. This year, local ER doctor and friend of SBI, Michael Page, will be a participant.
Two events are open to the public:
Monday, September 16, 11:30 a.m. - 12:45 p.m. Lunch Panel, "Ancient Christian Approaches to Soul Healing and Healing Today." Follow this LINK for more information and to register for Monday's event.
Tuesday, September 17, 7:00-8:30 p.m. Evening Panel, "Chronic Pain, Medicine, and the Calling of the Church." Follow this LINK for more information and to register for Tuesday's event.
