A comedy team is performing at this year’s Crossroads Lecture on Faith and Public Life Tuesday, which is hosted by Religious & Spiritual Life. SketchCo performs scripted comedy and graduates of the training center of Four Day Weekend, a local comedy group, auditioned to become members of the group. Other universities in the United States hold lectures similar to the Crossroads Lecture, said Angela Kaufman, TCU’s minister and church relations officer. She said themes of those talks have been faith and media and faith and politics. “TCU’s lecture was designed to bring people of diverse backgrounds together to talk across differences,” Kaufman said. Previous lecture topics have been immigration and grief. “This year’s subject is faith in comedy,” said Britt Luby, an associate chaplain. “This year I think we just needed to laugh.”
