How do you equip people in your congregation to rediscover the Bible and its power to change lives and speak to us today?

Luther Seminary is pleased to partner with the ELCA Book of Faith Initiative to bring together lay leaders, teachers, pastors and church staff for a three-day conference preceeding the 2009 Churchwide Assembly in Minneapolis.

Through presentations, conversation and practical takeaways, this conference will inspire and equip you to lead your congregation in reading the Bible to live into their callings as people renewed, enlivened, empowered and sent by the Word.
