DeHaan Lecture on Health Promotion and Education today, April 12, at 6 p.m. in the Alperin Auditorium of the 1525 Building.

Witte received a four-year, $546,350 grant from the Lilly Endowment to prepare four new books, articles and public lectures on law, religion and the Reformed tradition. His research findings are expected to make a case for a distinctive Protestant theology, jurisprudence and ethic addressed to some of today's issues such as marriage, family and sexuality; freedom, human rights and rule of law; and authority, church-state relations and constitutional order. Witte also has been named recipient of this year's Abraham Kuyper Prize for Excellence in Reformed Theology and Public Life, awarded by Princeton Theological Seminary. The award carries a cash prize of $10,000 and is presented each year to an outstanding scholar or community leader who has contributed to the development of Reformed theology, particularly as it relates to law, business, technology, education, economics and the arts. Witte will receive the award at a ceremony April 7 at Princeton, where he will give a lecture titled "God's Joust, God's Justice: The Revelations of Legal History."
