1. CASE Quarterly Seminar

Case #27 is progressing well, and will contain a number of articles dealing with natural disasters and the challenges they pose for Christians in the world. Should Christians defend God’s justice in the face of earthquakes, cyclones and the like, and if so, how? Does the media report on disasters in an ethical way, and how can Christians make a difference? How have Christians interpreted natural disasters throughout history?

Become a CASE Associate to receive your copy of Case #27 and the subsequent three issues of Case magazine. By becoming a CASE associate you will also receive discounts/free entry to CASE events and will have access to associates-only resources on our CASE website.
