A Conversation with James Winston Morris
Join us for a conversation with James Winston Morris, a leading scholar of Sufism and Islamic philosophy. Professor James W. Morris has been studying Sufism for over 50 years, and he has a unique perspective on the role of Sufism in promoting peace and understanding in the world.
In this conversation, Professor James W. Morris will explore the ways in which Sufism can help us to overcome conflict and violence, and to build bridges of understanding between different cultures and religions. He will also discuss the challenges that Sufism faces in the modern world, and how we can support the work of Sufis who are working for peace.
During the conversation, there will be opportunities for audience participation. Audience members will be able to ask questions of Professor Morris, and they will also be able to share their own experiences with Sufism and peace.
