SUMMARY:Progressive Christian Voices: Today and Tomorrow - Webinar
DESCRIPTION:A webinar hosted by Brian Allain and intended to deal with “big questions.” The session will feature three Broadleaf Books authors addressing questions such as:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease tell us briefly about your background and a bit about your most recent book \n\n\nWhat have you been reading lately that has most impacted you? \n\n\nWhat do you believe are currently the most pressing issues that progressive Christians should address? \n\n\nIn what ways would you suggest that progressive Christians take action to address these needs? \n\n\nThere seems to be an increasingly wide gap between progressive and conservative Christians in the United States. Does that matter? Should we do anything about it? \n\n\nLooking forward\, what plans can you speak about in terms of where your own work is headed? (future books\, activism\, etc.)

SUMMARY:Seeking Everyday Faith with Thomas Merton\, Christ Church Greenwich\, Greenwich\, CT
DESCRIPTION:Seeking Everyday Faith with Thomas Merton\n\nIn conversation with Deborah Goodrich Royce\, author Sophfronia Scott shares her deep dive into the private journals of the famous Trappist monk\, and the connection she found in his pages that led to her new book The Seeker and the Monk: Everyday Conversations with Thomas Merton. As a Black woman who is not Catholic\, Scott both learns from and pushes back against Merton\, holding spirited\, and intimate conversations on race\, ambition\, faith\, activism\, nature\, prayer\, friendship\, and love.\nSophfronia Scott is a Harvard-educated novelist\, essayist\, and leading contemplative thinker whose work has appeared in numerous publications and received a 2020 Artist Fellowship Grant from the Connecticut Office of the Arts as well as the 2021 Thomas Merton Award from the International Thomas Merton Society.
