Rev. Dr. Russ Levenson Jr and Actor Sam Waterston Inspire Attendees at Christ Church Greenwich

The Courage & Faith Speaker Series at Christ Church Greenwich hosted the Reverend Dr. Russ Levenson, Jr. and acclaimed actor Sam Waterston for an inspiring in-person evening exploring faith, belief, and the human spirit.

Sam Waterston, one of many distinguished figures interviewed by Rev. Dr. Levenson in his new book Witness to Belief: Conversations on Faith with Some of America’s Most Influential Voices, joined the author for an hour-long conversation before a captivated audience of more than 200+ parishioners and guests.

Together, they reflected on how well-known individuals integrate faith into their lives and work.

When asked about a defining moment in his own spiritual life, Waterston replied, “I don’t have a story about the skies opening up and everything being revealed, but I do think I’ve had the repeated experience of the daily, unamazing regularity of minor and major miracles. One of the sad things about a totally secular look at the world is that it blinds you to the commonplace of the miraculous.”

The Courage & Faith series at Christ Church Greenwich continues to bring together acclaimed thinkers, writers, and public figures who explore the intersection of faith, culture, and contemporary life.
