Four nights, four dynamic preachers. Each night of the 2023 General Assembly will bring dynamic preaching and uplifting music centered around the three scriptures that shaped the 2023 General Assembly theme Kindom of God, Within Us, Among Us:
– Genesis 11:1-9
– Luke 17:20-21
– 2 Peter 1:3
We are excited to invite the whole church to the 2023 General Assembly “The Kindom of God Within Us, Among Us” July 29 – Aug. 1 in Louisville, Ky.
You can explore the speakers, utilize the Bible study sessions and watch each of the preacher’s “Imagine with Me” conversations. Early-bird rates only last through March 1, so register now to be a part of this worshipful week.
Call For Artists:
The 2023 General Assembly envisions creating an experience that integrates art into the event. In concert with the theme Kindom of God, Within Us, Among Us, the General Assembly is requesting a call for artists.
If you are an artist interested in immersive and interactive encounters, work with stories and themes woven around things like the sacred, mystery, justice, and wholeness, we encourage you to consider applying for this opportunity.
Workshops:
With dozens of workshops to choose from, church leaders from across the life of the church can enrich their knowledge while connecting with others who are curious about the same topic.
The workshops for the 2023 General Assembly are organized around three tracks that tie into the theme Kindom of God, Within Us, Among Us: Within Us track, Among Us track and Goodness Abroad track.
The Within Us track focuses on affirmations of faith, music and theology and practices that sustain faith. The Among Us track focuses community engagement, best practices in hybrid worship and connecting to our neighbors in our community. The Goodness Abroad track focuses on our service with neighbors, exploration of difference and exploring our identity as Disciples in the world. You may choose a single track to attend or choose workshops from across the different tracks, depending on your educational interests.
Registration:
General Assembly will start at 9 am on Saturday, July 29th, and conclude after the closing worship service at 9 pm on Tuesday, August 1st. On-site registration will open at noon on Friday, July 28
