The Sunday Forum: Critical Issues in the Light of Faith is a weekly program of honest, intellectually probing, and generous-spirited dialogue about major issues of our time as seen from the Christian perspective.
What: Each Sunday, Cathedral Dean Sam Lloyd and his guests wrestle with pressing topics such as environmental stewardship, the role of faith in politics, religious pluralism, personal ethics, global justice, and faith in a changing culture.
Audience members and online viewers pose questions to the featured guest in the second half of the conversation.
On Sunday, March 2, Denyce Graves, an internationally acclaimed opera star, solo recording artist, and interpreter of spirituals and popular songs, will be Dean Sam Lloyd’s guest.
She has starred in many of opera’s greatest roles, including Carmen, Delilah in Samson et Dalilah, Emilia in Otello, and Judith in Duke Bluebeard’s Castle. Her popular record Denyce Graves: A Cathedral Christmas was recorded at Washington National Cathedral in 1997. In 2003, she developed the recording Church, featuring African-American female singers inspired by their common upbringing in the church. Ms. Graves is a native of Washington, D.C., where she attended the Duke Ellington School for the Performing Arts.
