November 21-23:
Be a part of the conversation!

Trinity Institute’s 43rd National Theological Conference will take up the challenge of telling the story of Jesus today. The purposes of this year’s conference are:

• To equip clergy and lay leaders to participate consciously, creatively, and faithfully in the ongoing evolution of the Christian faith
• To gather and give voice to a diverse group of leading scholars and practitioners who are wrestling with how historic tenets of the faith address current realities
• To discover fresh, compelling ways to speak the age-old story

Theme

The 2013 Trinity Conference will take place November 21-23. This year’s theme, ‘Evolving with the Gospel of Jesus’, examines the means by which the historic tenets of our faith address current realities, ways in which the vital story of the Gospels can be told in fresh and compelling ways.
