"The Veritas Forum began at Harvard University in 1992 as an effort
to engage students with the deep issues of truth and meaning that
its founders believed were lacking in the modern university
setting. In A Place for Truth, Dallas Willard has edited a
collection of speeches from two decades of Veritas discussions that
attempt to address life's most difficult questions."
*Relevant Magazine, September-October 2010*
"Since its founding in 1992, The Veritas Forum has provided a place
for the university world to explore the deepest questions of truth
and life. A Place for Truth gathers the Forum's most notable
presentations, with contributions from Francis Collins, Tim Keller,
N.T. Wright, Mary Poplin, and more."
