Annual Symposium
The Symposium on the Theological Interpretation of Scripture features prominent scholars from around the world and provides a forum for interdisciplinary theology from a biblical perspective for the benefit of the church. North Park Theological Seminary is pleased to announce that the thirty-third Symposium on the Theological Interpretation of Scripture and the theme is Human Violence. The symposium takes place Sept 27-29 and registration is required. Details can be found online.
Faith and Health Symposium: Being Well
The church has an important role in helping people be well, in addition to caring for the sick. Now more than ever, the church needs to claim its role in health promotion rooted in Scripture and tradition and our communities need to create opportunities for wellness for all. Working together, congregations and healthcare professionals can collaborate in responding faithfully to the challenge of health promotion, considering what can be done together that neither can do alone.
Join us November 10, 2018 at North Park University for third biennial symposium. This year’s keynote address will be “honoring the Body as a Spiritual Practice” by Ruth Haley Barton.
