14 - 16 August 2008
Transformational Development Conference
Co-sponsored by Food for the Hungry and George Fox University, the Transformational Development Conference will be held 14-16 August 2008 in Newberg, Oregon, USA. We welcome all co-laborers and Christian leaders wrestling through similar challenges and questions about holistic ministry, Christian development, and living in the "already but not yet" Kingdom of God. The vision is to explore how we can encourage a more theologically sound, multi-voiced, and holistically integrated vision for the Church and Christian development. We pose these questions: What does true, holistic transformation look like? How does our faith integrate with the ways we engage in this world? What is and what should be distinctively Christian about Christian development? How are we ourselves objects in transformation, even as we are agents of transformation? Plenary speakers include: Dr. Bryant Myers, Dr. Evvy Campbell, and Dr. Brian Fikkert. We are looking for presentation proposals that address what it means to be transformational in all aspects of holistic ministry and Christian development.
