The Dean of Duke University Chapel, the Rev. Canon Dr. Samuel Wells will be the Speaker during the 2007 James Ross McCain Faith and Learning Lecture. He was Priest-in-Charge of St. Mark’s Church in Cambridge, England, before becoming dean of Duke University Chapel in 2005.

The Rev. Wells is also Research Professor of Christian Ethics at Duke Divinity School, and a specialist in theological ethics. He has published numerous books and scholarly articles, that have earned him a reputation as one of the major theologians writing on ethics today. He is devoted to parish work and for many years worked in economically deprived areas, such as inner-city Liverpool, and has been deeply involved in those communities.
In conjuction with the event, we have compiled a bibliography of selected resources - books, book reviews, journal articles, and websites by and about the Speaker
