A Conversation on God, the Grind, and the Good Life

Life in the university is a unique season for exploring who we are, what we believe, and where our lives are headed. Yet in a world of uncertainty—and pressure to succeed—how do we navigate the tension between building a secure future and pursuing what is true, good, and beautiful? Join us as we wrestle with these questions together.

Etter-Harbin Alumni Center

Life in the university brings endless opportunities for new learning: in the classroom, through relationships, and in new experiences. These opportunities often force us to examine, test, and reconsider our most deeply-held beliefs. What are we to do when we find ourselves in this place? Join us for a lively conversation between three scholars from different fields. There will also be discussion with attendees at tables and time for audience Q&R.

Dinner will be provided!

AUGUSTINE COLLECTIVE PUBLICATION

The Texas Trinitas

The Texas Trinitas is the first student-run journal of Christian thought in the state of Texas. Based at the University of Texas at Austin and run by UT undergraduates, we hope to catalyze a conversation on campus by exposing students and faculty to ideas they may never have encountered before.
