Leadership Conference 2011
Present and Active:
Experiencing God through Preaching and Worship
April 4-5, 2011
Worship is the first place we respond to the good news preached in the sermon. Through the liturgy we are shown how to give God thanks and praise and provided with the opportunity to do so.
The conference will focus on the important, yet sometimes overlooked, partnership between preaching and worship. Through a unique offering of worship “mini-events” participants will experience a variety of liturgical settings and preaching opportunities as well as engage in text study for the seven Sundays of the Easter season.
Keynote speakers for the event will be Maxwell Johnson, professor of Liturgical Studies at Notre Dame University and Craig Satterlee, the Axel Jacob and Gerda Maria (Swanson) Carlson Professor of Homiletics at LSTC and Dean, ACTS D.Min. in Preaching Program.
Worship Coordinator for the conference will be Benjamin Stewart, Gordon A. Braatz Assistant Professor of Worship and Dean of the Chapel at LSTC.
Other participants will include Melinda Quivik, Associate Professor of Christian Assembly at the Lutheran Theological Seminary at Philadelphia and Daniel Schwandt, Cantor to the Seminary Community at LSTC.
The conference will begin on Monday, April 4 at 9:00 am and will conclude on Tuesday, April 5 at 4:30 pm.
More information will be posted here as it becomes available.
