ESN Conversations This Fall

September 14, 2020 by Hannah Eagleson No Comments



We’re so excited about the fall lineup of ESN Conversations! If you haven’t registered already, take a look at tomorrow’s webinar with Elaine Howard Ecklund, and please browse the rest of the lineup below.


September 15, 1 pm (US Eastern Time): Elaine Howard Ecklund, Why Science and Faith Need Each Other

Register here: http://tinyurl.com/eecklund

One area where Christians can be peacemakers is in building good conversations that bridge between communities of faith and communities of science. Drawing on her experience interviewing over 40,000 scientists and religious believers, Dr. Ecklund will help us understand how shared values and virtues can help us connect.


September 24, 3 pm (US Eastern Time): Warren Brown and Brad Strawn, Enhancing Christian Life (on extended cognition)

Register here: https://tinyurl.com/enhancingCL

I don’t know about you, but in this time of pandemic I had to reimagine a number of spiritual disciplines, from participating in my local church service to daily rhythms of connecting with God. Warren and Brad will share insights from neuroscience, psychology and philosophy that can help us deepen our spiritual growth and our connection to community in this moment.


October 15, Noon (US Eastern Time): Justin Giboney, Compassion and Conviction (on the “And” campaign and civic engagement)

Watch our Facebook page for a link closer to the time. 

In a complex and stressful election year, are you longing for a bigger vision of what it means to live out faithful civic engagement as a believer? Justin Giboney will help us imagine faithful political and civic engagement as the Body of Christ.


November 10, 1 pm (US Eastern Time), Michael Card, The Nazarene: Forty Devotions on the Lyrical Life of Jesus

Watch our Facebook page for a link closer to the time. 

Musician and author Michael Card will talk with us about his most recent book, devotionals on the life of Christ. If you’re looking for devotional reading for the season of Thanksgiving and Advent, this is a great opportunity to meditate on the life of Christ in community.
