The annual Sperry Symposium at Brigham Young University has become one of the premier venues for Latter-day Saint religious study. Today’s Sperry Symposium influences thousands through seminars and publications.The symposia originated to encourage faith-based religious scholarship on Latter-day Saint topics. Since 1989, select papers from the Sperry Symposium have been copublished by Deseret Book and the Religious Studies Center at BYU. The entire printed collection represents the work of more than 275 scholars, educators, historians, and authors producing well over 600 articles.

There is NO CHARGE for this event and registration is not required. The general public is welcome and encouraged to come.
