Courageous Faith in a Time of Fear
May 13 @ 8:00 am - May 14 @ 5:00 pm
About the Conference | From Fear Toward Hope
Courageous Faith in a Time of Fear is a two-day public conference exploring what it means to lead, speak, and act faithfully amid political polarization and deep divisions within churches.
Presented by Knox College’s Ministry Forum and the Institute for Christian Studies’ Free to Be Faithful initiative, the conference is open to clergy and lay leaders alike and includes a dedicated pastoral leadership track.
Through roundtables, workshops, and a closing panel, participants will explore sustaining big-tent communities, organizing for faithful action, and building the capacity of faith communities to move from fear to hope.
