Following Christ 08
Posted by tom | Apr 7, 2008Want to know more about Following Christ, InterVarsity's triennial conference for graduate students, faculty, and professionals?
Go to http://www.followingchrist.org/ to register, to explore scholarship info, and to download audio from Following Christ 98 (which includes the material N.T. Wright used for The Challenge of Jesus: Rediscovering the Jesus Who Was & Is) and Following Christ 02.
Please join me in prayer for Following Christ:
1. Preparations by speakers (including N.T. Wright & Francis Collins), track leaders (note: 26 total, including Franklin & Marshall's Mike Murray who will be leading the Humanities Track), our worship leader (Brian Moss), and the 1500 anticipated delegates (who Lord willing will include several graduate students and faculty with whom I'm connected in PA, DC, DE, MD).
2. Furthermore with regard to delegates, pray for the financial resources/travel arrangements (note: you might remember a number of us were snowed in at the end of Following Christ 98), connections with mentors (some via the Emerging Scholars 1-Day pre-conference with which I'll be involved), preparation to receive what God will teach each and every one regarding Human Flourishing (note: check out the Thematic Overview Paper).
