The weekend of February 21-23, the Advent will be hosting several speakers from 1517, an organization we have supported for several years whose purpose is to proclaim and deliver in refreshing ways the good news of the gospel and its freeing power.
On Friday evening and Saturday, we will gather at the Advent with Chad Bird, Daniel Emery Price, and Erick Sorensen around the theme, When Jesus Shows Up: The Unexpected Epiphany. Friday evening will include dinner. Saturday will begin in the morning, continue through lunch, and conclude at 2:30. On Sunday, they will be with us as guest preachers and teaching in the Dean’s Class.
In addition to their talks, Chad, Dan, and Erick will be recording an episode of their 40 Minutes in the Old Testament podcast on Saturday. Jono Linebaugh, Paul Zahl, Leslie Housman, Dean Pinter, and Craig Smalley will also all be giving devotionals. It promises to be a rich weekend!
Register at the link below. You may register for either or both days; the registration fee covers the costs of the meals ($50 for the weekend; $25 for one day). Friends and others are warmly welcome.
Ask any of the clergy or staff if you have any questions. We hope you will plan to join us!
