The goal of the Veritas Forum is to explore life's hardest questions. We are inspired by the idea that Jesus Christ has something to offer us in our search for truth, freedom, and purpose, and we wish to consider this idea as we investigate the many possible answers to our questions. We invite the entire university community to take part in this ongoing conversation in the hope that it will further our quest for truth, beauty and goodness in every aspect of our lives.
