I am so thankful that I was able to be present at this conference last weekend, though clearly the most under-qualified of all the presenters. The experience was a blessing and I hope to be part of another one in the future.
"The Religious Turn: Secular and Sacred Engagements with Literature and Theory."

This conference encouraged me that Jesus can be glorified in all that we do - even homework (an Eng 123 paper)! Although there were many different perspectives at this conference - it was exciting to be part of a dialogue about faith and literature. It was a blessing to see how we can learn from and challenge each other to more boldly, lovingly, and truthfully engage the secular with the sacred through literature.
