The World Religions & Health Series
Wednesday Evenings, 6 to 8 p.m.
September 27 - October 25
Why am I sick? - Is this good for me? - What happens when I die?
When it comes to health and healing, religions shape our beliefs and preferences through their teachings, texts, and cultural traditions. Patients of different faith have different needs for caregiver relationship, nutrition and medication, end-of-life choices, family involvement, as well as different worldviews of what it means to be healthy and the role of the body.
In this series of evening seminars, we will explore what it means to heal, and expectations of medical care, through the teachings and cultural traditions of five major religions:
September 27: Christianity
October 4: Buddhism
October 11: Islam
October 18: Hinduism
October 25: Judaism
Each seminar will include two qualified lecturers and Q&A.
$75 Series Pass | Individual $20
