The first event is a talk at Rose State College on the morning of March 10. This event is free, and community members of all types are encouraged to attend. This event will highlight the empirical work that Dr. Pargament and others have pursued on understanding spiritual struggles, with research participants and in therapeutic settings.

The second event is our Department of Psychology and Counseling Ladd Lecture, on the evening of March 10. Again, this event is free, and all community members are encouraged to attend. This lecture will explore the research that Dr. Pargament and others have pursued on the way people perceive relationships and other aspects of life through a sanctified, or sacred, lens.

There is a cost for this workshop. Please share this with those you know who might be interested.
