New insights on grace and the soul will be brought to light on
Saturday, February 28, 2009.
On that day, from 1:30 - 4:30 p.m., the Institute for Christian
Spirituality will hold its next Great Spiritual Book of the
Semester Club meeting, which will focus on two works by famed author
Graham Greene: The Power and the Glory and The Heart of the
Matter. The first is the story of a Roman Catholic priest in the
deeply troubled Tabasco region of Mexico in the 1930s, a time when
tensions between the church and government were high. The other tells
the tale of moral change and a prideful individual's relationship with
the Catholic church in Sierra Leone. Both books were selected by
Time Magazine as part of its 100 Best English-Language Novels
from 1923 -- 2005.
In addition to Graham's masterworks, participants will also engage in
discussion about grace and the soul in the Letters of St.
Paul. The discussions will be led by:
Dermot Quinn, professor in the department of history and a member
of the Board of Advisers of the G.K. Chesterton Institute for Faith
& Culture
Gregory Glazov, associate professor of biblical studies and
coordinator of the Great Spiritual Books program
The event is $15 and will take place in Lewis Hall. For more
