Questioning Christianity
—a series of four lectures
Christianity’s decline in America is much talked about. Increasingly, people feel faith no longer makes sense in our lives. The Questioning Christianity lecture series invites key experts from the US and beyond to address today’s doubts and field audience questions.
The Questioning Christianity lecture series is hosted by Wheaton College and sponsored by the Wheaton College Billy Graham Center and the Jean Kvamme Distinguished Chair of Public Christianity.
We will continue the series this Fall with Dr. Sam Chan!
