SUMMARY:Let's Talk Globally: The Varieties of Spiritual Experience: Voices from the Ground - Africa & India
DESCRIPTION:Join us in person or online for a meal and panel discussion facilitated by Dr. Rolf Nolasco and featuring Yohan Davuri (MAPCC student) and Simbarashe Ndowa (MAPM student) as they explore how the cultural and religious traditions of Hinduism and African spirituality have influenced their understanding and practice of Christianity\, and how these traditions have enriched or challenged their faith in ways that encourage inter-religious dialogue. This conversation hopefully highlights the potential for enrichment and challenge when faith traditions intersect\, fostering deeper inter-religious dialogue\, and their engagement in addressing social issues that cut across religious boundaries. Co-sponsored by the Job Institute for Spiritual Formation and the Office of Student Life.
