What does it look like for believers to wisely engage the intersection of faith and culture in daily life?

Join us on March 16, 2018 on the campus of Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary in Wake Forest, NC, or via livestream, for The Wisdom Forum — an evening of compelling conversation addressing the faithful interaction with cultural issues the church faces today.

Today, get to know one of our speakers, Dr. Bruce Ashford, who will speak about wisdom and the good life.
