On January 16, 2020, the Lumen Christi Institute held "Becoming Human in Light of the Gospel of John", with Fr. John Behr at the Oriental Institute of the University of Chicago.

On his way to Rome, Ignatius of Antioch urges the Christians there not to interfere with his impending martyrdom: ‘hinder me not from living, do not wish me to die, allow me to receive the light, when I will have arrived here, I will be a human being’! In this lecture, Fr John Behr explores how the Gospel of John alludes back to Genesis to show that Christ is the true human being, inviting us also to become human.

This event was cosponsored by the Theology and Ethics Workshop, the Orthodox Christian Fellowship at the University of Chicago, and St. Makarios the Great Orthodox Mission
