You are invited to the Tuesday Night Lights talk series: Faith and Art: A Conversation on Beauty and the Sacred. Each Tuesday evening, we’ll welcome a different artist or art expert from within our congregation to explore the meaningful intersection between art and spiritual life as they share their stories and lead a conversation. Come for some evenings or join us for them all, and step into a space where stories, questions, and shared reflections can awaken our sense of wonder, stir our hearts with beauty, and renew our hope in a broken world.

About Tom Caven

I trained as a physician at UT Austin undergrad and UT San Antonio Medical School. Once in Austin, I practiced for 16 years then became Medical Director/ Chief Medical Officer at Brackenridge, later Dell  Seton. I In retirement tI still  teach at Dell Medical School very part time, and am in a small healthcare consulting group. Married to Marsha Caven for decades, I have two grown children, a daughter in law, and a young grandson here in ATX; I feel lucky to have loved ones in town.

Since I was a kid I have loved music. I have a very deep and abiding interest in all kinds of music, and have played music myself for decades. In the prior church I attended I played in the " praise band", and here at UUMC I have been part of the Bluegrass Sunday since it started several years ago. I feel one of the ways the Lord can speak to us is through tunes and lyrics that touch our souls and connect us. I will speak about that love of music and play a few tunes on Tuesday.
