Bathos Lecture Series
ERIC METAXAS is a renown Bonhoeffer scholar and author of the acclaimed New York Times bestseller, Bonhoeffer: Pastor, Martyr, Prophet, Spy, which was recently named the “Book of the Year†by the ECPA, also winning in the non-fiction category. The book also won the 2011 John C. Pollock Award for Biography awarded by Beeson Divinity School. Called a “biography of uncommon power,†Bonhoeffer has appeared on numerous Best of the Year lists, and has been featured in the Wall Street Journal, Publishers Weekly, The New Republic, Harper’s, Kirkus, NPR, FoxNews, C-SPAN’s Book TV, and First Things.
Metaxas is the 2011 recipient of the Canterbury Medal awarded by the Becket Fund for Religious Freedom. Previous medalists include Archbishop Charles Chaput and Elie Wiesel.
In a decidedly eclectic career, Eric Metaxas has written for VeggieTales, Chuck Colson, and the New York Times, three things not ordinarily in the same sentence. He is a best-selling author whose biographies, children’s books, and works of popular apologetics have been translated into German, Albanian, Portuguese, Spanish, Korean, Turkish, Galician, and Macedonian.

PHIL KEAGGY It might seem easy to pigeon-hole Phil Keaggy as simply a great guitar player. He is, after all, recognized in both the Christian and mainstream music communities as one of the best players to ever pick up the instrument. No guitarist (or non-playing layperson for that matter) has ever listened carefully to Keaggy play and not come away in a kind of catatonic awe of his virtuosity on the fret board. Moreover, the soft-spoken musician is usually quite willing to let his guitar speak for him.
But don't be fooled by first impressions. The guitar-hero is a songwriter on a mission that, while at first glance subtle, is clear to anyone who pays attention. And for Keaggy, paying attention is what matters most.
And paying attention has many rewards, perhaps one of the best of which is insight into a man who has clearly become comfortable with his maturity, a man whose years have helped shape a wisdom that can discern the things that are genuinely urgent and those that are passing. Long ago in Phil Keaggy's life, grace, beauty, and truth have taken preeminence over passing fads or ego.
SCHEDULE
7:00 PM Friday, September 30: Eric Mataxas & musical guest Phil Keaggy
9:00 AM - 4:00 PM Saturday, October 1: Eric Metaxas speaking on Dietrich Bonhoeffer
