CURRENT EVENTS

Why should we care about what’s going on in the world.  How does it impact you personally in your home, community and nation.  Where a handful of us seem to struggle in finding ways to make these connections, I challenge you to consider the power of Current Events. It allows you to explore different approaches to the world. Current Events are a wealth of examples of concepts in the real world. Stay up to date.

 

Our Current Events is a discussion group for people interested in ideas and their application     to life, culture, and Current Events. We aim to attract a diverse group of thinkers who discuss ideas in an atmosphere of civility, and give one another’s views a thoughtful hearing.  You will refine your understanding of your own ideas by actively engaging with those of differing intellectual contents.

 

We are seeking a facilitator to lead this Current Events group upwards and beyond. Please contact Joyce Poses by email, joyceshawk57@bellsouth.net. Looking forward to hearing from you.
