SUMMARY:Public Reading of Scripture in Sage Chapel
DESCRIPTION:Join us journey through the entire Bible together in the beautiful Sage Chapel\, and snag a free lunch! \nThe Bible is a masterpiece of world literature and of immense historical significance. We welcome all to join regardless of religious affiliations. \nThis multi-level experience will allow you to slow down and absorb these fascinating and complex texts without pressure or expectation. \n\nWhat is the value of the Public Reading of Scripture?\nAs we listen to the text being read aloud\,  we are automatically forced slow down and only read at the pace of the reader. \nReading scripture aloud in community is an ancient practice\, before books were widely distributed (or easily replicated) the main way these texts were shared was as they were read aloud in group settings. \nReading through the whole Bible offers an experience like no other- no skipping over the uncomfortable or focusing on your favorite verses\, parables\, or stories. \nEvery Tuesday! We’ll be here every week this semester\, and we can’t wait for you to join us! \n

SUMMARY:Chesterton Perspectives: Danielle Treweek
DESCRIPTION:Chesterton Perspectives brings you: \nUnraveling the Meaning of Singleness\n\nA Conversation with Danielle Treweek Christian Theological Researcher\, Author\, and Speaker\n \n\n\nMarch 25th\, 2024\n7:30 pm EST in person at 111 The Knoll Rd\n7:45 pm EST via Zoom\n\n\nRegister Here \n\n\n\nSingleness: the unloved waystation on the road to marriage. Mainstream Christian figures from Tim Keller and Albert Mohler to James Dobson and John MacArthur would have us believe that marriage is the preferred state for everyone\, singleness the unfortunate consolation prize or the waiting stage before something “better”. But\, what if there’s something “better” about singleness that gets overlooked today? Christian scripture and tradition teach us that singleness and marriage are equal callings with their own riches and pains and with complimentary roles foreshadowing the eternal life that awaits us. Dani Treweek proposes that we turn from these shallow and contemporary caricatures to retrieve a richer and fuller sense of what it means to be human\, both here and in eternity. \nDanielle Treweek; Christian Theological Researcher\, Author\, and Speaker\nDanielle Treweek\, Rev’d Dr Danielle Treweek (BA\, B.Div (Hons)\, PhD)\, is an ordained deacon within the Sydney Anglican Diocese. After serving as an assistant minister at St Matthias Anglican Church\, Centennial Park\, she completed doctoral research into theology of singleness for the contemporary church through St Mark’s National Theological Centre in Canberra. She is the author of The Meaning of Singleness\, is commencing commentary work on 1 & 2 Thessalonians for Hodder & Stoughton and writes for publications including Christianity Today\, Themelios\, Mere Orthodoxy\, and ABC Religion & Ethics. She is the founding director of Single Minded Ministry\, teaches at Youthworks College in Sydney\, and is a member of the Doctrine Commission within the Sydney Anglican Diocese in which she also serves as Diocesan Research Officer. \nRegister Here

SUMMARY:Public Reading of Scripture
DESCRIPTION:Join us Friday mornings for our Public Reading of Scripture on the Knoll! \n  \nOur Public Reading of Scripture events are a time to gather in community to hear The Bible read aloud while sharing a meal. \nAll you have to do is listen. \nThis multi-level experience will allow you to slow down and absorb the Word of God without pressure or expectation. \n  \nWhy Join Public Reading of Scripture\nThe Bible is a Key\nThe Bible has had such an impact in the history of humanity\, learning more about what it says and teaches will unlock a new understanding to history and literature. \nIt’s a Biblical Practice\nIn Scripture we often see God’s people receive God’s Word aloud together as a community. \nSpiritual Food\nWhile we are all very aware that we need food to duel our physical bodies\, reading scripture is a spiritual discipline we can practice to feed ourselves spiritually. \nA Better Bible Strategy\nIt takes 90 hours to listen to the Bible in it’s entirety\, yet hardly anyone every reads through it all. Many of us want to read more of the Bible\, but few have a disciplined strategy to succeed. Reading/hearing Scripture aloud in community makes it easy as you listen while you eat and find a small community of people who journey through the Bible with you over the year. \nHope to see you on the Knoll!

SUMMARY:Sunday Night Dinner on the Knoll
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a home cooked meal\, and discussion on life’s big questions. \nPraxis dinners are a cherished tradition of Chesterton House’s hospitality. Bringing together people from varying faith traditions and beliefs\, they welcome all students from any background to join over a meal while discussing the big questions that transcend discipline and majors. Through small group discussion and large group reflections\, attendees read short reading selections together to generate conversation around the deepest questions of life and develop friendships within a vibrant and curious community. They can foster the sort of discussion where you leave thinking: these were the conversations I was hoping college would be about!

SUMMARY:Theological Society: Lauren Monroe
DESCRIPTION:Guest Scholar: \nLauren Monroe\nCornell Professor Monroe combines a close reading of geographical details in the biblical texts and a careful study of the archeological record to offer a fresh perspective on the origins of ancient Israel. She hypothesizes that the “Greater Israel” we know from the Bible record actually represents the careful joining of two histories from northern and southern settlements in Tirzah and Jerusalem\, respectively. \n(The event is in collaboration with Cornell Hillel) \nLauren Monroe; Associate Professor\, Department of Near Eastern Studies at Cornell University\nMonroe received her PhD in Bible and Ancient Near East from the Skirball Department of Hebrew and Judaic Studies at New York University. Her teaching interests include Hebrew Bible and Biblical Hebrew at all levels\, Syro-Palestinian Archaeology\, and Ancient Israelite Religious and Social History. She is particularly interested in the way what it meant to be “Israelite” changed over time\, and how such changes are reflected in the stratigraphy of the biblical text and the archaeological tel. She has brought Cornell students with her to excavate at an array of archaeological sites in Israel\, including Tel Zayit\, Tel Rehov\, and Abel Beth Maacah. In her book\, Josiah’s Reform and the Dynamics of Defilement: Israelite Rites of Violence and the Making of a Biblical Text (Oxford University Press\, 2011) she explored the 7th century BCE religious reforms of the Judean King Josiah\, whose rites of violence are a formative moment in the Bible’s representation of the emergence of monotheism. She is currently working on two monographs: one on the emergence of the Bible’s Joseph traditions\, and the other on the Song of Deborah and Micro-history. Also\, on the horizon is a large-scale research project entitled Tidings From Sheba\, which addresses how South Arabian Sabaean inscriptions from Yemen illuminate ancient Israelite society\, politics and religion. \n  \nThis society seeks to gather Cornell faculty and graduate students to discuss major themes in biblical and theological studies. Discussion aims to satisfy what Simone Weil once described as the basic need of the soul to consider “every sort of opinion\, without the least restriction or reserve.” To this end\, we invite dialogue that explores and even challenges historic orthodox beliefs as well as those ideas that reign in the contemporary church\, academy\, and culture. \nOur dialogue is collegial and cordial without shying away from the hard questions scholars face in their life and work. Members of the group seek to nurture discussion by listening attentively to one another\, guarding the length of our responses\, and avoiding diversions to pet issues unrelated to the subject at hand. In short\, we seek to embody a uniquely Christian form of intellectual hospitality that we can pass on to future generations.

SUMMARY:Theological Society: Ross Wagner
DESCRIPTION:Guest Scholar: \nRoss Wagner\nAssociate Professor of New Testament\, Duke Divinity School \nThis society seeks to gather Cornell faculty and graduate students to discuss major themes in biblical and theological studies. Discussion aims to satisfy what Simone Weil once described as the basic need of the soul to consider “every sort of opinion\, without the least restriction or reserve.” To this end\, we invite dialogue that explores and even challenges historic orthodox beliefs as well as those ideas that reign in the contemporary church\, academy\, and culture. \nOur dialogue is collegial and cordial without shying away from the hard questions scholars face in their life and work. Members of the group seek to nurture discussion by listening attentively to one another\, guarding the length of our responses\, and avoiding diversions to pet issues unrelated to the subject at hand. In short\, we seek to embody a uniquely Christian form of intellectual hospitality that we can pass on to future generations.

SUMMARY:Chesterton Perspectives: Abigail Favale
DESCRIPTION:Chesterton Perspectives brings you: \nFeminism and the Family\n\nA Conversation with Abigail Favale Professor of the Practice\, Women’s Studies\, at University of Notre Dame\n \n\n\nFebruary 19th\, 2024\n7:30 pm EST in person at 111 The Knoll Rd\n7:45 pm EST via Zoom\n\nRegister Here\nWhat if the key to achieving female equality lies in embracing what makes women different from men instead of competing to be the same? Notre Dame Professor Abigail Favale was among the strongest feminist scholars in America\, when a religious transformation moved her to reassess the viewpoints she found herself defending. This reassessment led her to the conclusion that feminist theory has lost its way by trying to constantly conform to shifting trends in popular culture. The dominant culture today imposes the idea that women’s bodies are merely abstract objects of performance\, not necessarily related to “family.” From a young age\, girls are taught to strive to “keep up with the boys\,” as this is what is needed to create an “identity” for themselves—one that asks the question “What can females do\, build\, compete for\, and achieve?” without acknowledging or honoring the divine gift bestowed on them in creation. \nCoinciding with a rapid increase in girls preferring to be boys\, and the shocking rise of depression\, anxiety\, and self-harm among teens\, our culture has deviated from the creational uniqueness of women. While holding true to feminism’s vision of female equality and dignity\, Favale’s “Catholic Feminism” seeks to restore a theology of human identity grounded in family\, harmony\, wholeness\, and divine gift. \nAbigail Favale; Professor of the Practice\, Women’s Studies\, at University of Notre Dame\nAbigail is a writer and professor whose work lies at the intersection of Catholic theology\, literature\, and women’s studies. Her abiding interest as a writer and scholar is the meaning and dignity of woman\, and her work explores sexual difference and embodiment in the Catholic imagination. Her first book\, Irigaray\, Incarnation\, and Contemporary Women’s Fiction (Palgrave 2013) was awarded the 2014 Feminist and Women’s Studies Association Book Award. Her second book is Into the Deep: An Unlikely Catholic Conversion (Cascade 2018)\, a spiritual memoir that traces her journey from birthright evangelicalism to postmodern feminism and\, finally\, to the Catholic Church. Abigail’s most recent book\, The Genesis of Gender: A Christian Theory\, was published in 2022 by Ignatius Press and has already been translated into multiple languages. Her numerous essays have appeared in MICL’s Church Life Journal\, The Atlantic\, First Things\, Public Discourse\, Comment\, and elsewhere. Abigail is also a fiction writer and was awarded the J.F. Powers Prize for Short Fiction in 2017. \nRegister Here
