2023 Gratitude Tuesday Webinar

You’re no doubt familiar with Giving Tuesday. Created in 2012, Giving Tuesday has since gone global, with thousands of organizations from around the world launching daylong fundraising campaigns.

While we certainly do not begrudge these efforts, in 2021 First Things decided to start doing something a bit different, and Gratitude Tuesday was born: a day for our editors and staff to thank those readers and supporters who make the mission of First Things possible.

As one expression of our gratitude, it is our pleasure to host this webinar on “The Spiritual Crisis of the West” for all 2023 supporters of First Things. To join the conversation with Francis X. Maier, Aaron M. Renn, and R. R. Reno, please register below. We will circulate a Zoom link on Monday, November 27.

Francis X. Maier is a senior fellow in the Catholic Studies Program at the Ethics and Public Policy Center. Maier served as senior adviser and special assistant to Archbishop Charles J. Chaput, O.F.M. Cap., for twenty-three years in Denver and Philadelphia, and before that was editor in chief of the National Catholic Register. He is a cofounding board member of the University of Pennsylvania’s Collegium Institute for Catholic Thought and Culture, and a board member of the Napa Institute.

Aaron M. Renn is a writer and consultant in Indianapolis, and a co-founder and senior fellow at American Reformer. Previously, he was a partner at Accenture and a senior fellow in urban policy at the Manhattan Institute. Today his focus is on helping conservatives and the American church rise to the challenge of finding success in the twenty-first century. Renn writes at aaronrenn.substack.com.

R. R. Reno is editor of First Things.
