The Future of Entertainment and a Catholic Response
A lecture from Dr. Derry Connolly, Founding President of John Paul the Great Catholic University
Friday, April 12
7pm – 8:30pm
City of the Lord (711 W. University Drive, Tempe, AZ)
This is an important topic for parents as social media is becoming increasingly more depraved, invasive, and addictive. Dr. Connolly's talk will touch on the important considerations for parenting today, where media is taking our culture, how Catholics in the workplace are challenged to be witnesses to Christ as well as the importance of being masters of their craft, and finally the critical underpinning roles played by the liberal arts in entertainment.
Come join our new Encounter School of Ministry, Phoenix Satellite Campus team, and students for an amazing experience of the Outpouring of the Holy Spirit next Summer!
