This is where we discover, together, what it means to be human. We take a soul-searching look at humankind’s similar and disparate systems, beliefs, languages and cultures. Seek great understanding through the literary masterpieces of great thinkers. Provide context for traditions and folklore and let philosophy collide with history and politics. This is where we make sense of the world. From a human perspective. And from a biblical perspective.
