University hosts national pastoral leadership conference
George Fox will host a national pastoral leadership conference, “Spiritual Discernment As Christian Leadership,” on the Newberg campus May 31 through June 3. The event will feature a panel of leading Christian thinkers from around the country.
Sponsored by the George Fox University Congregational Discernment Project, the conference will address the issue of how Christ effectively leads the church in unity. Plenary sessions, workshops and panel discussions with pastors, teachers and authors will provide attendees with a vision for unity and the tools to practice this leadership approach.
Plenary speakers will be Lloyd Ogilvie, Graham Standish, Paul Anderson, Ruth Haley Barton, Peter Bouteneff, and Leith Anderson. All George Fox students, employees and alumni receive a $50 group discount (registering before May 1); save $100 by registering before April 1.
Be sure to pass the word on to church leaders who might be interested. For more information, visit discernment.georgefox.edu or contact Paul Anderson (Religious Studies) at panderso@georgefox.edu.
