2026 Allen Lecture

The Annual Allen Lecture
Sacred Rage: A Pastoral Theology of Grief, Anger, and Love

THURSDAY, October 15 | 7:00 PM

at McCormick Theological Seminary
During McCormick Days

Drawing on his book, Sacred Rage: Love That Didn’t Die With Them, Rev. Dr. Damien W. D. Davis explores how chaplains, pastors, and caregivers can accompany people through grief and anger without rushing them toward premature comfort. Rooted in the Black prophetic tradition and shaped by more than a decade of clinical chaplaincy, this lecture offers a practical pastoral framework for honoring lament, rage, and enduring love.

This event is free to the public but requires registration.
