An Evening with James K.A. Smith

Description

Art House Dallas is honored to welcome James K.A. Smith for a conversation on Being Still in a Noisy World: The Arts as Invitation to a Contemplative Life.

We most powerfully encounter the infinite God when we turn to the depths of our interior life, as Augustine said. But our hurried lives distract us from the contemplative stillness required to confront ourselves and meet God. Thankfully, the arts come to us as a gift in the practice of contemplation; paintings and poems arrest us and ask us to attend to the world, and ourselves, in a different way.

Facilitated Q&A to follow the presentation.
