Theological Horizons

A to the snow last month! Anyone else confused by the weather this week…. Come rain or shine, hot or cold, Vintage Lunch will be ready for you in the Bonhoeffer House at 1pm tomorrow. We love seeing our students and friends each week!!!

Theological Horizons proudly presents renowned New York Times opinion writer David French and best selling author Nancy French as the 2026 Scoper Lecturers in Christian Thought, featuring music by Paul Zach of Porter’s Gate.

In their conversational lecture, “Telling the Truth: Stories of Courage, Conflict and Connection,” Nancy and David will recount the personal and political costs of speaking inconvenient truths – and testify to the promise of courageous honesty. This conversation is for anyone who longs for authenticity, boldness and hope amidst fracture and conflict.
