Leading During Elections: A Panel Discussion

The 2024 election is proving to be one of the most contentious and momentous elections in memory. It is also one in which religious voices have both significant and loud, for good and bad. Believing that persons of faith hold their primary allegiances not to political parties but to their faith commitments, it is nevertheless the case that such faith communities shape their political allegiances. How, then, do the leaders of faith communities engage their members and the wider public—especially as our civic politics seem to grow increasingly dysfunctional?

We invite you to join a panel of wise leaders to think together on this big question and, perhaps, to make this big question more manageable. The panel will be facilitated by Dr. Mark Douglas, J. Erskine Love Professor of Christian Ethics. Panelists will include: Rebecca LeMon, Gregory Eason, Elena Parent, Jennifer McCoy.
