Community Event: "Unlocking the Da Vinci Code"

The Church Communication Network invites you to spark a life-changing spiritual discussion in your community by being part of a live satellite broadcast of Unlocking The Da Vinci Code on Sunday, May 21.

Coinciding with the release of the critically acclaimed film starring Tom Hanks on Friday, May 19, this outreach event is designed for both Christians and seekers who have read the book, seen the movie, or are curious about the tremendous response to this popular work of fiction.

Hosted by Lee Strobel and Mark Mittelberg, the 90-minute broadcast will open with footage of Strobel at the Louvre Museum in Paris, the site of the fictional murder that opens The Da Vinci Code.

Dr. Erwin Lutzer, senior pastor of the historic Moody Church in Chicago and author of The Da Vinci Deception, will then address the historical issues raised by both the book and movie. The event will conclude with a live, interactive Q&A session for the satellite audience.
