Our monthly Dialogues offer the Ottawa region a sustained, intimate setting for engagement with some of the best that has been said or written. Come read classics like Athanasius’s On the Incarnation as well as works by Isaac Watts, C.S. Lewis, and modern writers. Our ecumenical commitment means you are sure to encounter fresh perspectives in a respectful context. So, if you have been itching for a regular place to kick up your feet, laugh, and read books alongside other Christians, look no further!
All Dialogues occur on Tuesday nights, 7:00-8:30 at the College, 152 Metcalfe Street. If you are not in Ottawa, you can join us via Zoom.
What does the beloved hymn writer and influential educator Isaac Watts have to say to us, almost 300 years later, about using our minds? Why should we use them? How do we make the most of them? One way is to discuss books and ideas with one another, so please join us as we discuss ‘Part 1, Directions for the Attainment of Useful Knowledge’ from Improvement of the Mind.
