Morgan Forum

The Morgan Forum is an annual conversation about the past, present, and future of the Bible. Started in 2023, in connection with the library’s establishment of the J. Michael Morgan English Bible & Psalmody Collection, this annual event brings together Biblical scholars, translators, collectors, and the general public to consider the impact of the Bible on the church and culture and to learn from one of the world’s premier collections of English Bibles.
