Whole-Person Politics

Students, please join the Division of Communication and the Winsome Conviction Project for this special event. 

We live in a divisive political age and it is difficult to navigate the civic sphere with the gentleness and truth God calls us to. Experts Michael Wear and Denise Gitsham will be talking about the communication and formation problems we are facing and then will offer tools for living out the way of Jesus in this polarized age.
