Sacred space is central in the practices of many faith traditions. A Duke Chapel "Bridge Panel" explores the topic with Christian, Jewish, and Muslim leaders. The panelists include: Dr. Ellen Davis, Amos Ragan Kearns Distinguished Professor of Bible and Practical Theology at the Duke Divinity School; Dr. Omid Safi, director of the Duke Islamic Studies Center; Dr. Christy Lohr Sapp, associate dean for religious life at Duke Chapel; and Rebecca Simons, director for Jewish Life at Duke. Chapel Dean Luke Powery will moderate the discussion. The conversation is part of the Chapel's Bridge Panels series that seeks to connect people from various walks of life to discuss issues of shared concern. The event is co-sponsored by Duke Undergraduate Faith Council.
