"One of the gravest errors of our time is the dichotomy between the faith which many profess and the practice of their daily lives... The Christian who shirks his temporal duties shirks his duties towards his neighbor, neglects God himself, and endangers his eternal salvation."

Gaudium et Spes,
the Pastoral Constitution on the Church in the Modern World (no 43), from Vatican II.

About the Forum

In society today there is an increasing awareness of the profound need for professional leaders to be inspired by Christian ideals and to apply those ideals to their everyday activities - in a phrase, to live a unity of life. In addition, we have a responsibility to help those around us - at work, at home and in civic life.

The Men's Leadership Forum of Chicago is a program designed for professional leaders in the Chicago area to address these critical issues. Its goal is to offer guidance and encouragement in the application of Christian principles to daily life.

The forum will offer session on four vital topics. The outstanding group of speakers will provide thought-provoking and challenging material. Considerations will include the teachings of the Second Vatican Council, Pope John Paul II and Saint Josemaria Escriva, the founder of Opus Dei. The sessions will also provide the opportunity to deepen professional friendships and enhance spiritual solidarity among one's peers.
