12:30 p.m. Seeking the Hiding God with Dr. Arnold Eisen
Following lunch we continue to learn with our Scholar-in-Residence, Dr. Arnold Eisen.
Dr. Eisen acknowledges that there is little we can know about God’s nature; his focus is on the search for the “hiding God,” the meaning of fleeting encounters with the Creator, and the acts of justice and compassion that human beings are called to perform as partners of God.
The book invites readers to join the author in asking, perhaps for the first time, what they actually believe about ultimate matters of faith and doubt—and rewards fellow searchers for ultimate meaning with reassurance that the search itself can be a source of personal fulfillment, vibrant community, and great joy.
