The once every three years Collegiate Summit has been a special event and gathering of the College Ministry family for several years now. The next Collegiate Summit will be in Nashville at First Baptist Church, Hendersonville on May 2-4.
Speakers already announced are Ben Stuart, Pastor of Passion City Church in Washington, DC, Russell Moore of the Religious Liberty Commission, Tom Richter, pastor of First Baptist Church, Cullman, Alabama, Jackie Hill-Perry, Writer and Artist of Nashville. Brooke and Boggs will be leading worship.
I am excited that we have just received confirmation that Erica Reitz and Dr. Bob Stewart will be leading Mega Seminars at the Summit. Erica is the author of AFTER COLLEGE: NAVIGATING TRANSITIONS, RELATIONSHIPS AND FAITH. Erica serves at Penn State University where she has specialized in helping college seniors and recent graduates navigate the transition to post-college life.
Dr. Stewart is a professor at New Orleans Seminary and speaks to standing room only crowds of students each August at Collegiate Week. He is known for his understanding of theological trends and answering the tough questions of faith.
I will confess to being a "Summit Addict" but not willing to seek treatment. What is better than being with 500 other College Ministers....folks who get what we do better than anyone else? If you register by January 15, 2018, you will pay only $125 registration which includes two meals and a reception. Spouses registering with a College Minister can register for only $50. So, it is couple friendly! You can go to the Lifeway Events website for the schedule and a list of area hotels who offer a special Summit price.
I will be in Nashville May 2-4 and hope you will be too!
PS: It is mostly Baptists that come....but not all.....and most of them are friendly and don't bite...except at meals.
