Courage & Faith Speaker Series

In a rapidly changing world, the church faces both immense challenges and unique opportunities. How can we share God’s love in a culture that often seems disconnected from faith? How do we build bridges of peace and understanding in an era marked by deep divisions and global unrest? What new ways of worship and community might reignite a sense of spiritual relevance for those searching for meaning?

Courage and Faith is a dynamic speaker series designed to address these questions. It is a collaboration between Christ Church Greenwich and St. Barnabas Episcopal Church. Through thought-provoking conversations, artistic performances, and immersive spiritual experiences, this series aims to inspire, challenge, and equip individuals to live out their faith with courage and purpose in today’s complex world. Together, we hope to spark meaningful dialogue and find inspiration for courageous living.

We look forward to an inspirational continuation in 2026 and hope you will continue to join us on this journey...
