More Than A Religious Teacher:

Is Jesus history’s most under-appreciated philosopher?

We’re used to seeing Jesus as a figure for the afterlife, but we rarely talk about his insights for this life. Whether you’re a believer or a skeptic, there’s no denying the legacy of the life and teachings of Jesus in our world.

A widely respected historian and Bible scholar, Jonathan Pennington (PhD, St. Andrews), is hosting a conversation on the possibility of Jesus as the ultimate philosopher. Consider this a masterclass on the ancient art of human flourishing.

Light refreshments will be provided, and there will be time for audience Q&A.

Seating is limited. RSVP requested by March 26.
