Coming attraction
On December 1, James Martin, SJ, will deliver the annual Advent talk sponsored by the Boston College Alumni Association and the Church in the 21st Century Center. His topic will be “Between Heaven and Mirth: Joy, Humor, and Laughter in the Spiritual Life,” which is also the subject of his new book. Fr. Martin is the culture editor for America magazine and has been a guest on National Public Radio’s Fresh Air with Terry Gross, the Colbert Report, and the O’Reilly Factor, to name a few venues.
The talk, which is free, will begin at 6:30 p.m. in Robsham Theater and will be made available for viewing within two weeks on the C21 website.
