Join Ministerial Intern Valentin Frank for a 4-session course exploring the question of "belief".

When exploring religion, asking “What do _____ believe?” offers a simple entry point into interfaith dialogue. However, the human experience of faith is far more complex. Our convictions regarding life, death, divinity, purpose, ethics, and the unknown are frequently fluid, nuanced, and even contradictory—shaped by personal history, shared community, and ongoing discovery. This series examines the question of belief in all its depth, exploring the dynamic between belief and faith, first through a historical lens of comparative religion, and then through contemporary perspective, seeking to understand our own beliefs and those of our community more deeply.

The sessions are cumulative, so please try to attend them all! However, you are welcome to register even if you can not attend all meetings. Please make note of any meetings you will not be able to attend in the "Note to Valentin" below.
