SUMMARY:When Prayer Meets Protest
DESCRIPTION:Kerri Day, PhD – Princeton Theological Seminary\nOur Life in Common\n \nWebinar Description: \nThis webinar explores the inextricable link between prayer and protest. Prayer is often seen as antithetical to protest, a move away from the political into the inward life. Protest, on the other hand, is seen as purely political, unrelated to prayer and piety. The group will explore prayer as a form of protest and protest as a form of prayer. We will look at key scriptural texts and contemporary movements to illuminate the relation between prayer and protest.\nView the whole series\nRegister for Free Below! \n\n \nKeri Day, PhD\nKeri Day is the Elmer G.
