Want to know more about the Marriage Study? Big Tent
Some folks want to learn more about the marriage study, others wish it didn't exist, and some would like a different approach to the subject. Whatever the case, there are going to be two opportunities at Big Tent to engage it. The first will give participants a chance to experience of going through (at least some) of the study together. The second will be a discussion about the study, insights from folks who put it together, and time for best practices on implementing the study in congregations and mid-councils.
See the link above for more info.

Join Us Under the Tent
The Christian life is shaped by our thinking the faith, praying the faith, and living the faith. Conference participants will reflect on the inner relationship among the content of our faith, our prayer and worship, and our whole lives. We will try to help each other live into a fuller appreciation of how we are shaped as disciples of Jesus Christ.
