What Does it Mean to Be Evangelical? A Conversation with Dr. Walter Kim

  • North Carolina Study Center 203 Battle Lane Chapel Hill, NC, 27514 United States (map)

Join us for a conversation over lunch with Dr. Walter Kim, the President of the National Association of Evangelicals.

The word "evangelical" means different things to different people. Is it helpful to keep using this term, and if so, what exactly does it describe? Dr. Kim will offer his thoughts on these questions and lead us in a discussion on what it means to be an evangelical Christian today.
