Join the Center for Christianity and Public Life for our second annual summit, For the Good of the Public on October 7-8, 2024, in Washington D.C.
For the Good of the Public is the premier forum for civic and Christian leaders committed to the public good. We want you to participate in a transformative conversation over two days about the future of faith and American civic life.
You will hear from an inspiring group of thinkers, practitioners, and decision-makers on issues of public importance, find community with other publicly-minded leaders, and thoughtfully engage with the resources Christianity has to offer for the public good.
If you are someone who contributes to the well-being of your community and desires a healthier public life and politics, you belong at For the Good of the Public. This summit is attended by a robust and diverse collection of pastors, church and ministry leaders, academics, public servants, journalists, and policy makers.
