Craig Detweiler @ Nav Nite - 2/28/08

We were fortunate enough to have Craig Detweiler (now an official Ph. D) come and speak to us about "Joining the Cultural Conversation" at Nav Nite. Mike Donovan had the foresight to record the event and the marvelous Q&A, linked below for your listening pleasure.

The Room of Grace

We watched a DVD of John Lynch giving this talk at Nav Nite a few weeks ago. I figured I would throw it up here in care anyone wants to listen to it that wasn't at Navs, or (like me) just need to hear it often.

Purple State of Mind Screening and Discussion

Hey all!

We're super excited about a new event that we're putting on, co-hosted with the Atheists, Agnostics, and Freethinkers Club at NYU. A screening of Purple State of Mind, a new documentary film, as well as a question and answer session with the co-directors, John Marks and Craig Detweiler.

The event will be at 7PM on Thursday, February 28th, in Room 101 in 5 Washington Place- aka the Psychology building, across the street from Myer Hall. There is also a Facebook event here.

Check out the trailer:


Craig will also be speaking at Nav Nite on Feb. 27th, the Wed. prior to the screening, an event that you don't want to miss. He'll be speaking on the theme of his new book, Into the Dark: Seeing the Sacred in the Top Films of the 21st Century, one of RELEVANT Magazine's 3 most anticipated books of 2008.
