The Faith and Culture Series

 

“Decree 4 [General Congregation 32, 1975], having made its central affirmation about the inseparability of the service of faith and the promotion of justice, then speaks of ‘our mission to evangelize,’ particularly through dialogue with members of other religious traditions and through the engagement with culture which is essential for an effective presentation of the Gospel.” 
                                -General Congregation 34 of the Society of Jesus, 1995
 
Georgetown University, in response to this vision, has inaugurated a lecture series which invites contemporary American writers to reflect on their work in the context of the engagement of faith with culture.   Seeking the integration of faith and culture represents a commitment to a church within the world, serving the human search for truth, justice, and solidarity.

We invite you to view past webcasts of previous events in this series, as well as to learn about future installments in the series.
