<a href="https://events.bc.edu/event/beyond-balance-finding-vocational-equilibrium-in-disorienting-times" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Beyond Balance: Finding Vocational Equilibrium in Disorienting Times</a>The pursuit of "work-life balance" often sets ministers up for failure by presenting an impossible ideal of static perfection. In this session, L. Callid Keefe-Perry (director of vocational discernment and ministerial readiness at Brite Divinity School)&nbsp;dismantles that myth and explores "dynamic equilibrium," learning how the shifting moral and spiritual landscape of ministry requires constant, responsive adaptation rather than rigid boundaries. Come explore the idea of a "Moral Orienting System" to map ministers’ current realities, identifying which practices and commitments need adjusting to stay faithful, grounded, and renewed in their vocations.

Acme Theater

Wildly funny comedy about a theater company attempting to perform a play while everything that can possibly go wrong does! A fond look at the follies of theater folk, whose susceptibility to out-of-control egos, memory loss, and romantic entanglements turn every performance into a high-risk adventure. Brimming with slapstick comedy, Noises Off is a delightful backstage farce, complete with slamming doors, falling trousers, and flying sardines!

Anna, an artist, and Magnus, a fisherman, share three children and live in Iceland’s stunning countryside. With wit and depth, auteur Hlynur Pálmason explores a year in the family’s life through a series of vignettes. The film is beautifully shot on 35mm film and features bursts of surrealism. Join us for this visually and emotionally radiant study of a family.
