October 1 | Art Show
October 2 | Seminar
137 W 4640 S, Murray, UT | 5 — 7 PM
Free entry, giveaways and refreshments. All are welcome. RSVP at cult.love/show
This two-part event series, held on October 1-2, 2022 at the cult HQ in Murray, UT, welcomes all to come hear us synthesize decades of research on why we think church is done, and how we can prove it.
On night one, October 1, we will host an art show. The pieces on display are learning aids in depicting this perspective on the faith that we find to be under-known and incredibly liberating. And on night two, October 2, we will unpack the basics of that perspective in a seminar format. All thoughts questions, challenges are welcome under one constraint: they are conducted in an attempt toward agape love.
If you are a seeker, if you have been burned by religion, if you insist that church is ever present – we welcome you. No matter your past, current, or future beliefs, we welcome you. But most importantly, we welcome you within a spirit of peace, understanding, and cooperation to pursue the Truth alongside one another.

Utah Film Center is excited to announce our upcoming screening of Fight Club on Wednesday, October 5th at 7pm at the City Library downtown location. One of the most iconic films of the late 90s, Fight Club’s exploration of toxic masculinity and consumerism in America left some moviegoers inspired by its bravado and others outraged at its blatant displays of male violence. Please join us for the screening and stick around afterward for a post-film conversation about Fight Club’s legacy and toxic masculinity with a professor from University of Utah’s film department and KUER’s RadioWest host Doug Fabrizio.
Presented as part of our Through the Lens series, which for 2022 features a collaboration with the University of Utah’s Department of Film and Media Arts to present an extended exploration of what many Film Lovers regard as the “Classic Films” in cinematic history. The post-film discussion will ask the question “Why is this film a classic and who is it a classic for?”
SYNOPSIS
A depressed man (Edward Norton) suffering from insomnia meets a strange soap salesman named Tyler Durden (Brad Pitt) and soon finds himself living in his squalid house after his perfect apartment is destroyed. The two bored men form an underground club with strict rules and fight other men who are fed up with their mundane lives. Their perfect partnership frays when Marla (Helena Bonham Carter), a fellow support group crasher, attracts Tyler’s attention.
Former Poet Laureate Joy Harjo will be in conversation with Distinguished Professor of English and former Utah Poet Laureate Katharine Coles. Joy Harjo is an internationally renowned performer and writer of the Muscogee (Creek) Nation. She served three terms as the 23rd Poet Laureate of the United States from 2019-2022. She is the author of nine books of poetry, several plays and children’s books, and two memoirs, “Crazy Brave” and “Poet Warrior.”
