This event is by invitation only.

Susan Gates, executive director of Faith and Law, will connect the work of Faith and Law to theological insights contained in her unpublished book manuscript, Beautiful Orthodoxy: Public Theology for Perilous Times. As Christians engage in the public square knowing "when" we are, that is, in the timeline of redemptive history, provides an important foundation for the policies we pursue and how we engage with others. The implications for a public theology situated in common grace are many: religious liberty for all, reliance on natural law (rather than on Israel’s theocratic code) to guide jurisprudence and penology, and the freedom to develop culture and work for its renewal.
