The Faith & Work Forum is a conversation series on Grounds that discusses the interplay between faith, work, and life. Each semester we feature guest speakers with leadership experience from across a wide range of vocations, who bring authentic stories about seeking a meaningful, purpose-driven life. RSVP required.

A second Forum on November 3rd at 12:30pm will feature Frank S. Alexander, emeritus professor of Law and founding director of the Center for the Study of Law and Religion at Emory University.
“The Faith & Work Forum was such a powerful and refilling time in every way. In just one hour in this conversation with Dr. Danny Avula, I was challenged and inspired in so many ways regarding what it can look like to live out of faith in and post-college; Dr. Avula's reflections on how his faith has led and guided his decisions and directions in life and career were both stretching and comforting and exactly what I needed to hear as I think about decisions for post-graduation.” - Malia Sample, Perkins Fellow ‘22
