More about the conference:
How do we read scripture? Do we read them on our own, deciding what to believe? Do we read them as part of a group, with a similar mindset? Do we read them with a world view? Trinity Institute's 41st National Theological Conference, led by an international panel of distinguished speakers, will explore the theory and practice of Bible study that is authentic and transformative. Speakers include Walter Brueggemann, Mary Gordon, Teresa Okure, and Gordon West.
