What
does it mean for a human to be fully alive? Is a human only a thinking thing,
or a living, breathing microcosm of beauty, flourishing, and delight?
Duke Initiatives in Theology and the Arts and The Veritas Forum present a unique event for
artists, theologians, and church leaders seeking to explore the depths of creativity,
faith, and human flourishing. A powerful evening, the event will feature
soul-stirring music from acclaimed singer-songwriter Sandra McCracken, and a thought-provoking conversation on art
and what it means to be fully alive between author Chigozie Obioma and former
archbishop Rowan Williams. From
music to profound dialogue to audience participation, you won’t want to miss
this event.
So come join us. This is more than just a concert or a panel discussion—it’s an
invitation to connect with fellow creatives and thought leaders, to enter into profound
conversations, and to explore the path to abundant life, especially amid a time
of transition and uncertainty.

event is a part of DITA2025:
