Dr. Jason S. Carroll, the Family Initiative Director, Spoke at Qatar Conference on Interfaith Dialogue

Wheatley Institute partnered with the American Enterprise Institute on conference

Paul Lambert, Wheatley Institute Religion Director, was part of a panel discussion during a breakout session at the 2024 Braver Angels National Convention. The convention was organized in an effort to find ways to disagree better especially in politics and civic virtue.

“People that worship regularly are having more gratitude, they’re having more joy, they’re having more opportunities to serve and look outside themselves...the more you care for others, the more happy you end up being.”

We are designed for love. We’re designed to experience love eternally. This is joy. And that is grounded in family relationships, mothers, fathers, children bound together eternally. I think it’s so beautiful.

The Constitution is foundational to what we all love about America. Arizona State professor Paul Carrese noted in a lecture at the Wheatley Institute last year that “our very complex constitutional system of separation of powers and federalism inherently call for civil disagreement over both long-term and day-to-day political issues.” So, understanding the rights underlying our constitutional system and how they protect people who disagree with us is critical.
