Waking Up to God's World: Seeing the Wonder of Creation with Dr. Brian Brock

  • North Carolina Study Center 203 Battle Lane Chapel Hill, NC, 27514 United States (map)

Join us for a lunch conversation with practical theologian and ethicist, Dr. Brian Brock. A leading scholar in disability theology and Christian ethics, Brock’s latest book, Joining Creation’s Praise, unpacks the first chapters of Genesis and the profound implications behind our often-limited ideas of creation and creaturehood. Does life ever feel dull and God feel distant? Join us for a Q&A on creation, technology, and God’s role in the world today, as we seek a broader imagination for our lives as created beings.
