Tom Camp to lead workshop at Faith and Citizenship Conference.

Religion and politics, two subjects certain to start a “conversation,” will be at the center of a two-day Piedmont College conference to be held in Athens on February 22-23, 2013. “Faith and Citizenship: Religion in the Public Square,” is the theme for the college’s sixth annual Religion and the Liberal Arts Conference, which will feature addresses by Barbara Brown Taylor, professor of religion at Piedmont; and by David P. Gushee, director of the Center for Theology and Public Life at Mercer University.  Samaritan's own Tom Camp will lead a workshop during the weekend.  for more information and to register, click here.
