Friends of religious freedom—and even those not so friendly to it who wish to learn more about it—will enjoy a public conversation on the subject next week at Georgetown University, where the Religious Freedom Project of the Berkley Center for Religion, Peace, and World Affairs will host Rick Warren, pastor of California’s Saddleback Church, in dialogue with Georgetown political scientist Timothy Samuel Shah, one of the most impressive scholars of global religious freedom working in the field today. It’s from 4:00 to 5:30 p.m. next Tuesday, February 12, in Gaston Hall on the Georgetown campus (rsvp requested). More info can be found here .
