ICJS has been engaging local, regional, and national communities with educational and dialogue programs for more than 30 years. We offer adult learners, teachers, community leaders, and religious leaders opportunities to explore interfaith relations that disarm religious tensions, encourage civil discourse, and deepen spiritual pursuits.
Courses
Courses provide adult learners with an opportunity to delve deeply into a subject over a series of class meetings. Courses are led by both ICJS and outside instructors and creatively mix multiple formats, such as lecture, group discussion, and paired study. They also incorporate diverse sources, including texts, art, music, and video.
Lectures and Discussions with Authors and Thought Leaders
