iACT Red Bench – June 18

June 18 – “Education – What is Education For?”

Does education have a moral purpose or is it merely about training for a career? What do we expect from our educational systems?

The Red Bench: Interfaith Conversations that Matter is a dialogue program centered on moderated small group discussions that are genuinely respectful and safe. No one has to be an expert – individual participants are invited to share from their personal experiences and listen with their hearts.

The Red Bench meets at the “Family Life Center” of First United Methodist Church at 1300 Lavaca Street in downtown Austin. A light meal is served from 6:30-7:00 PM and the conversation runs from 7:00-8:30 PM. http://interfaithtexas.org/dialogue/the-red-bench/more-info/
