Mark your calendars! You are invited to join ECCS as we welcome best-selling author Eric Metaxes on Sunday evening, October 17th at 7:00. Eric Metaxas has written for VeggieTales, Chuck Colson, and the New York Times, three things not ordinarily in the same sentence. He is a best-selling author whose biographies, children's books, and works of popular apologetics have been translated into several languages.

Metaxas was for two years a writer and editor for Chuck Colson's Breakpoint, a nationally syndicated daily radio program with over 400 stations and a weekly audience of five million. He then worked as a writer for VeggieTales. Eric's children's books for VeggieTales include the #1 bestseller God Made You Special! (over 600,000 copies in print), as well as Even Fish Slappers Deserve a Second-Chance and The Pirates Who (Usually) Don't Do Anything, both also bestsellers.

He is the founder and host of Socrates in the City: Conversations on the Examined Life, a monthly event of"entertaining and thought-provoking discussions on 'life, God, and other small topics'" that features such speakers as Dr. Francis Collins, Sir John Polkinghorne, Baroness Caroline Cox, Dana Gioia, Os Guinness and Peter Kreeft.
