Lectures in Eck en Wiel

The whole weekend has a cost of 50 euro p.p. (all inclusive: meals, room and participation in the program). But you can also just come for the saturday lecture, at 11:00, which is free! If you want to stay for lunch, at 13:00, there is a cost of 5 euro p.p. Check the dates and lectures and subscribe to participate through our contact page.

Confessions of an Atheist?
On our film weekends we watch and discuss 3 films together on Saturday, with an opening lecture Friday evening and a chapel service on Sunday morning. This time we will watch and discuss three films van the well-known director Woody Allen: ‘Crimes & Misdemeanors’ (1989), ‘Match Point’ (2005), en ‘Coup de Chance’ (2024). In all three films looms the question: do we live in a moral universe? Or can people get away with murder? Interestingly we see a development in these three films from different decades: they all have a different conclusion. Woody Allen still calls himself an atheist, but in these honest observations of humanity, do we see another longing as he gets older?
This weekend costs 50 euros, all included. But please remember to bring your own bedsheets!
