About this Event
1420 Carroll Weathers Dr. Winston-Salem, NC 27109
On Wednesday, April 3 at 6pm, the Veritas Forum at Wake Forest will host a speaker event entitled: "Is Wholeness Possible in Suffering?: A conversation on grief and strength with Dr. Ray Barfield and Dr. Emily Austin." The Veritas Forum is an initiative that began at Harvard to connect students and faculty in discussing the difficult "why" questions of life. For this year's WFU Veritas Forum event, Dr. Ray Barfield from Duke Divinity School and Duke Medical School will converse with Dr. Emily Austin of the WFU Philosophy Department about how we can grapple with suffering, mortality, and tragedy. Before Dr. Barfield and Dr. Austin commence their conversation, President Hatch will deliver opening remarks about the relevance of this conversation on WFU's campus. This speaker event will take place in Farrell Hall's Broyhill Auditorium. Please click this link to register (registration is encouraged but not required).
A week after the event, Call to Conversation will host a dinner to discuss how we as individuals and a community find strength in suffering. Space for this event is limited. Registration for the C2C will go live after April 3.
