EVC professors and BYU professors get togehter and...


...throw a 2 day interfaith dialogue in SLC?

I just found out about this from a buddy who is active in such things on the Evangelical side of the fence:

StandingTogetherMinistries is throwing a "National Student Dialogue Conference" thingy October 19-20 in Salt Lake City.

I'm only superficially aware of these folks and what they do, but Ravi Zacharias is associated with them.  Some of you may remember Ravi as the first evangelical to preach in the SL Tabernacle in 150 years. They're teaming up EVC's with BYU professors (including Dr. Millett, BYU president, and Dr. Truman Madsen), and talking about getting along.

In taking a look at the topics and the lineup, I figured people here would be interested.


Historic Review Of Evangelical Mormon Relations
With Dr. Craig Hazen & Dr. Spencer Fluhman


Missional Principles and Guidelines for Interfaith Dialogue
With Dr. Doug McConnell & Dr. Robert Millet


The Legitimacy of Mormon/Evangelical Dialogue, and Should We Even Be talking?
With Dr. Truman Madsen & Dr William Heersink


Spiritual Formation and Interfaith Dialogue
With Dr. Richard Bennett & Dr. Jerry Root


The Role of Grace & Works As It Relates To Doctrine & Tradition
With Dr. Craig Blomberg & Dr. Camille Fronk



Man, I'd love to see things like this happen more often.  I'd love to see more LDS and EVC folks thinking such things are useful and possible.
