This day-long event combines:

• Theologically rich teaching applied to today’s workplace challenges.

• Practical wisdom from women working in diverse industries and roles. 

• Leadership development that equips you to serve God and others right where you are.

Life in our Splintered World: How the Lordship of Christ Unifies All of Life

Life in America has become increasingly polarized and fragmented. From politics at the dinner table, to ideological divisions with neighbors, to our own fraught relationship with technology, we experience the impact of these fractures deep in our souls. Must we choose between left versus right, private versus public, embodied versus digital? How do we follow Christ and love our neighbor in our ever-splintering world?

This monthly Cohort will examine six areas in which we feel the effects of fragmentation: Politics, Evangelicalism, Technology, Work/Education, Neighbors, and our Segregated City. Join us as we work together to understand how the Lordship of Christ unifies all of life.
