For more than ten years, the Faith Angle Forum has brought together a select group of nationally respected journalists and distinguished scholars for in-depth discussions of some of the most crucial issues facing Americans today. The program is designed to create dialogue not simply between believers but for religiously and politically diverse participants, with the understanding that real education and insight occurs when all sides are represented.

Twice yearly, in South Beach, Miami, the Forum holds a two-day conference to discuss important dimensions of American public life in a serious fashion, miles removed from Washington's ideological battlefields. The invitation-only group is encouraged to escape the rigors of their daily beats and the rancor of partisanship to engage in thoughtful conversation and reflection. This is done in hopes of assisting members of the mainstream media to be responsible stewards of a national conversation.

Those who have attended these conferences repeatedly say that these forums are one of the few places where they have found the fairness, open-mindedness, and intellectual rigor that the program insists upon and consistently delivers.

What participants are saying about our latest conference:

"What a wonderful time we all had at your conference. I go to a lot of conferences, some with famous names in famous places. Your conference was at the tip top for intellectual depth, strong discussion, and excellent camaraderie. Thank you."

Senior Fellow, Freedom Forum

"Mike: I'm still buzzing from that conference—really, it was not only the most interesting but also the most enjoyable confab I've ever been to. Great company, lots of humor, wonderful setting, excellent topics, and speakers loaded for bear. A wonderful time, and from the plane ride home I can tell you that everybody else felt that way too. Thanks for including me."

"I came away with three or four story ideas. Mostly, the benefit comes from listening to what happens when really intelligent people get together in an informal setting where there is a big idea on the table."

"For someone who works in television, this conference is invaluable. It's a two-day graduate school, a chance to delve into ideas and stories that often get short shift in this medium. Given the way in which people consume news now it's more important than ever that someone like me knows the right person to call when doing stories on faith and religion. If I had 10,000 words to be profound, I could do it. It's far more difficult to be meaningful in two minutes. But coming to these conferences helps me do just that."

"The contacts I made are fantastic. I am very excited to be in touch now with several of the journalists and, especially, with Jim Daly and Ambassador Husain Haqqani. These contacts will help my future writing tremendously. In addition, the conference gave me numerous new insights and column possibilities, as well as additional impetus and material for my next book."
Tom Krattenmaker
USA Today

"Outstanding panels and much food for thought (and story ideas!). And great contacts; I met people I would never have interacted with, and would never have interacted with in such a casual, relaxed, and extended way. The combination of setting and people facilitated great interaction."
