The annual Relax, Refresh, and Renew Clergy retreat is back for 2021. It all begins with dinner at 6 pm on Tuesday, April 27, at the Disciples Center at Tawakoni.
The cost is $70 for two nights lodging and four meals. Those choosing to stay at a hotel or at home instead of the camp will need to make their own arrangements and their registration cost is $50.
Our visiting scholar is Dr. Joe Bessler, the Robert Travis Peake Professor of Theology at Phillips Theological Seminary where he is currently serving as Interim Chief Academic Officer and Dean. He will have four presentations on Theology and the Politics of Power.
- Getting Started: A look at political convention address to see how the theological and political overlap
- Looking Back I: A Christian mapping exercise
- Looking Back II: Christianity’s neo-platonic and imperial worldview
- Letting go of imperial Christianity, and who’s not.
The retreat will conclude sometime before lunch on Thursday, April 29. Register online now or through your ENGAGE account.
