PAST EVENT: Jens Zimmermann’s Incarnational Humanism (2nd edition) | Book Launch and Panel Discussion

  • Regent College 5800 University Boulevard Vancouver, BC, V6T Canada (map)

ABOUT THE EVENT

The Houston Centre invites you to celebrate the launch of the second edition of Houston Centre Director Jens Zimmermann’s acclaimed book, Incarnational Humanism (Regent College Publishing, 2024).

Zimmermann will look back on his experience of writing and revisiting Incarnational Humanism and reflect on how his ideas have developed in the twelve years since the first edition was published. He will then be joined by Hans Boersma (Nashotah House Theological Seminary) for conversation on incarnational humanism’s relevance for our cultural moment. Regent’s own Jonathan Anderson, Eugene and Jan Peterson Associate Professor of Theology and the Arts, will moderate their conversation.

This event will be offered onsite in the Regent College Chapel, and will be available via livestream and recording at rgnt.net/live.
