FAIR (fairlatterdaysaints.org), an organization committed to providing well-reasoned answers to critical questions about the doctrine, history, and practices of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, is pleased to visit Göteborg, Sweden, for a special lecture series aimed at strengthening faith through the development of critical thinking skills and the discernment of reliable sources.
The lecture series will feature speakers from FAIR who will address topics such as the importance of critical thinking in matters of faith, strategies for evaluating and utilizing reliable sources, and how to navigate complex theological questions with confidence and clarity.
"Our aim with this lecture series is to empower individuals to deepen their faith in the gospel of Jesus Christ by equipping them with the tools of critical thinking and the ability to discern trustworthy information," said DeLayna Beck, one of the organizers of the event.
