SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Faithful Witness in a Polarized Age: An Evening With Christianity Today’s Marvin Olasky
DESCRIPTION:Marvin Olasky is one of the most important Christian journalists of the past half-century. As former Editor-in-Chief of World magazine and current Editor-in-Chief of Christianity Today\, he has both shaped and communicated Christian perspectives on American society and politics. What is not widely known\, however\, is that Dr. Olasky is a University of Michigan alum who converted from atheism to Christianity while earning his doctorate in Ann Arbor. In this interactive event\, Marvin will recount his spiritual journey from doubt to faith\, reflect on his long career in academia\, journalism and politics\, and discuss how Christians can live faithfully amid turbulent and confusing times.

SUMMARY:Performance:“Changing Channels” – MFA Thesis Dance Concert by Lauren Blair Smith
DESCRIPTION:The Department of Dance proudly presents *Changing Channels*\, an innovative and original dance thesis concert directed and choreographed by Master of Fine Arts in Dance candidate Lauren Blair Smith.
