The 2019 National Annual Conferences and Meetings
Support the EPS to expand its reach, support its members, and be a credible presence of Christ-shaped philosophical interests in the academy and into the wider culture!
The 2019 national annual conference of the Evangelical Philosophical Society will be held at the Manchester Grand Hyatt in San Diego, California, from November 20–22 (Wednesday-Friday).
Dozens of papers will be presented by EPS members on a whole range of fascinating philosophical issues in metaphysics, epistemology, philosophy of religion, philosophical theology, philosophy of mind and science, ethics, and so much more!
The annual conference is held in conjunction with the Evangelical Theological Society (ETS). The ETS-EPS program can be viewed and downloaded here.
If you or a colleague wish to attend and have not yet registered, onsite registration will be available.
Here are some highlights to keep in mind from Wednesday, November 20th to Monday, the 25th:
- The EPS Reception (Wednesday, 8:30 – 10:30 pm; Marina Room, Lower Level). We will have the honor of hearing a word of encouragement from William Lane Craig, the opportunity to see old friends and getting to know some new ones.
