Biola University will hold the “Gratitude To God” Conference at Anaheim Marriott Bonvoy on Saturday, Dec. 3, at 9 a.m. This event is hosted by the Office of Academic Research and Grants.
Biola University’s “Gratitude To God” Conference
Attendees of a one-day event titled "Gratitude to God" will have the opportunity to hear from a group of scholars who have collaborated on a three-year study made possible by a generous grant from the John Templeton Foundation.
It will also discuss the meaning of gratitude and the various ways in which people in secular and non-secular communities express gratitude.
According to the university’s announcement, topics of research span from nonbelief and cosmic gratitude to the role of gratitude in the formation of suffering and how it is manifested in society.
They hope that by the end of the "Gratitude to God" Conference, attendees will have some key lessons that will help them cultivate gratitude toward the daily tasks they face in professional life, educational pursuits, and personal relationships.
This one-day conference will feature plenary speakers, interactive workshops, and panel discussions, all led by experts in their fields.
Most significantly, the content that will be discussed is founded on an extensive study conducted by a group that includes research psychologists and theologians/philosophers from Christian and secular colleges located all over the country, as per the announcement.
Students, pastors and other religious leaders, educators, corporate executives, and parents are all part of the targeted demographic, so there are lots of people to interact with.
The conference speakers will be Dr. Pamela Ebstyne King, Miroslav Volf, and Robert A. Emmons, Ph.D.
The Office of Academic Research and Grants (OARG) mission is to assist faculty members in facilitating their academic research interests by providing them with both direction and administrative support all the way through the stages of grant production, beginning with management.
