CSLI-Dallas presents

Faithful Speech in a Fractured Age: Eloquence, Charity, & the Christian Voice

Date: Wednesday, July 22, 2026
Time: 7:00-9:00 pm CT
With Fr Joshua Whitfield
Location: 1311 South Ervay Street, Dallas, TX 75215

As Alexander De Tocqueville taught us, the fabric of America is woven from local communities and held together by neighborliness.

Technological, economic, and spiritual forces are uprooting citizens from their localities, thus fraying our societal fabric. The church can mend what's torn in America by engaging culture on a human scale: in neighborhoods.

The event is free!
