School of Religion events to kick off this weekend

“Will Women’s Ordination Split the Church?” This panel discussion at 3 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 14, at Loma Linda University Church, will kick off the 2017-2018 event season for LLU School of Religion.

The discussion will be moderated by Jim Walters, PhD, director of the School of Religion’s Humanities Program. Panelists will be Randy Roberts, DMin, senior pastor for LLU Church; Jon Paulien, PhD, dean of LLU School of Religion; Ray Tetz, director of communication and community engagement for the Pacific Union Conference of Seventh-day Adventists; and Sandy Roberts, DMin, president of the Southeastern California Conference of Seventh-day Adventists. The event is co-sponsored by the Association of Adventist Women.                                                                                             

Future events include a play adaptation of George Orwell’s classic novel 1984. It will be presented Oct. 28-29 and Nov. 4-5. It is a Wright/Huffman production of the script by Robert Owens, Wilton Hall Jr. and William Miles Jr., hosted by the School of Religion Humanities Program.

Focused on Hinduism at Loma Linda University, the second program sponsored by LLU School of Religion’s William Johnsson Center for Understanding World Religions will take place Dec. 2. Hindu scholars and LLU faculty and students will share their thoughts and experiences.
