ABOUT THE PROGRAM:
What if evangelism wasn't a recruitment strategy to boost membership numbers or a coopted word to mask fire and brimstone conversion tactics? What is diversity wasn't a well-intentioned corporate tactic to reach the folks that are not part of the traditional Lutheran mindset; what if diversity was something to be celebrated instead of exploited? What if voices of lived experience and success shared the results of their research and learning, creating a path forward for ministry contexts?
Teaching, preaching, voices of healing are coming together from all walks of life and ministry in a call to action that inhabits the entire body and soul of the Christian community. From "Building Multicultural Communities of Belonging" to "Cultural Transformation; The 5 Seeds of Deep Peace", leaders in ministry among diverse cultures are sharing their stories of meaningful formation and growth. The common thread? Embodied practice, peacebuilding, and authentic belonging practices. Together, we are moving through division into healing and wholeness. Come as you are, a sacred commonwealth is waiting.
Featuring live group coaching, group spiritual direction, and "live your practice" rooms with interactive body or doodle prayers, join us as we strive to practice and to preach!
