SPIRITUALITY CONFERENCE:

DIGNITY AND THE AUTHENTIC LIFE

Beth-Sarah Wright, Ph.D.

October 21, 2023

9:30 a.m. – 3:00 p.m.

The culminating question in the Baptismal Covenant asks, “Will you strive for peace and justice and respect the dignity of every human being?” As core to the authentic Christian life, this question challenges us to look again and see the dignity in our neighbors and in our own lives. Dr. Wright will use the DIGNITY Lens, a seven-pronged transformative set of strategies inspired by this question to advocate for and address any barriers to authenticity in our communities and in our lives.

Beth-Sarah is the author of seven books. Her most recent book, The DIGNITY Lens Workbook: Implementing the Seven Strategies for Creating Authentic Community is a companion to her book DIGNITY: Seven Strategies for Creating Authentic Community. DIGNITY is a comprehensive lens through which to view and solve for insidious barriers to authenticity and narrow the gap between who we say we are and who we are in reality. For Wright, stories are the currency for dignity. More books and information can be found at her website, bethsarahwright.com.
