“The Character Gap” - Christian Miller
How many of us are good and virtuous people? How many are truly bad? Our invited speaker claims that psychology has an answer: We're almost all somewhere in the middle.
Dr. Christian Miller of Wake Forest University offers a philosophical, psychological, and theological analysis of human character. He offers emprical evidence about how most people's character is suprisingly inconsistent as well as some thoughts for how we can nevertheless hope to improve.
Join us Thurs, Nov. 6 for wine and cheese at 5pm in Bryant Gallery followed by Dr. Miller's talk and Q&A from 6-7pm.
