Description

Ever wish you could get two Regent teachers in the same room and watch them bounce perspectives off each other?

Faculty Roundtables are a chance to witness and even take part in these discussions, featuring full-time faculty, visiting professors, and friends.

This week's discussion is hosted by Dr. Don Lewis and features Dr. John Behr and Dr. Lynn Cohick. Together they will explore the question, "Why Does the Early Church Matter Today?" This will be a great opportunity to hear a theologian, a biblical scholar, and a historian address this important issue from their differing perspectives. Not to be missed!
