Grace Farms’ Upcoming Conversation On 'What’s Worth Wanting'

The free event, hosted by Dr. Matthew Croasmun, is scheduled for Sept. 20.

NEW CANAAN, Conn. – September 3, 2019 – On September 20, 2019, Grace Farms Foundation will present What’s Worth Wanting, a conversation exploring how to engage in the sort of reflection that our lives really need. Hosted by Faith Initiative Director Dr. Matthew Croasmun, the public program will focus on and identify the fundamental questions that guide human reflection and action.

“The question of what’s worth wanting encourages us to think about the direction of our lives in the broadest sense – from family to business to community to the world – and if our lives are being driven by what actually matters most,” said Croasmun. “All too often we are caught up in the hustle and bustle of our daily lives, hardly stopping to think and ask ourselves, ‘Is what I’m doing actually getting me what I want? And, more to the point, if I got what I’m chasing, would it be worth it after all?’
