Erskine College to host Garnet & Gold Forum in Greenville with Eric Metaxas May 14

April 17, 2022 by SC Independent Colleges & Universities

DUE WEST, S.C. (courtesy erskine.edu) — Eric Metaxas, New York Times #1 best-selling author, renowned commentator, and nationally syndicated radio show host, will serve as keynote speaker at the Garnet & Gold Forum on Saturday, May 14, in the Grand Ballroom of the Greenville Convention Center in Greenville, S.C. Following a VIP reception at 6:00 p.m., the dinner and program begin at 7:00 p.m. The event, which is hosted by Erskine College, is focused on Christian thinking in a secular-minded society.

The author of “Is Atheism Dead? (2021),” “Miracles (2014),” and numerous other works— including children’s books, biographies of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Martin Luther, and William Wilberforce, as well as his own memoir, “Fish Out of Water” — Metaxas hosts the Eric Metaxas Radio Show and is founder and host of Socrates in the City: Conversations on the Examined Life, a series of discussions on “life, God, and other small topics.”

On his radio show, Metaxas has interviewed such guests as David Brooks, Steve Forbes, Patricia Heaton, and Peggy Noonan. As founder and host of Socrates in the City, he has welcomed a wide variety of guests, including Baroness Caroline Cox, Os Guinness, Cal Thomas, and N.T. Wright. His op-ed, “Science Increasingly Makes the Case for God,” published in the Wall Street Journal in 2014, has garnered more than 600,000 Facebook shares and more than 9,250 comments, making it, unofficially, the most popular article in Wall Street Journal history.

Tickets and sponsorships are available at www.erskine.edu/garnetandgoldforum.
