In A Theology of Health, Tyler VanderWeele develops a Christian framework for understanding of health as incorporating both physical and personal wholeness, placing health within a broad theological perspective on the ends of human life. His insights engage the theory and practice of medicine, the theological disciples, the self-understanding of those who suffer illness, and the practitioners of pastoral care. Theologian Dominic Doyle responds, followed by audience Q&A. Reception to follow.

Co-presented by the Initiative on Health, Spirituality and Religion at Harvard Divinity School & the Human Flourishing Program at Harvard. Co-sponsored by the Clough School of Theology and Ministry at Boston College, the Guild of St. Luke, and the Harvard Christian Alumni Society.
