Please note that this event has been postponed. Saint Thomas More welcomes Michael Peppard '09, Yale alumnus and professor of theology at Fordham University, as this year’s Rev. Richard R. Russell Lecturer. An award-winning scholar of early Christianity, Peppard brings Scripture to life through its social, political, and ritual contexts. His talk will focus on his recent book, How Catholics Encounter the Bible (Oxford University Press, 2024), inviting thoughtful reflection on how Scripture is read, interpreted, and lived today.
