What a joy it is to “grow in grace and the knowledge of Jesus Christ”—and what a challenge it is to help promote that growth in Christian communities in winsome, thoughtful, and fruitful ways! This entire conference is an exploration in the joy of learning—learning more about Christ and about the body of Christ. But what about learning back home in our churches and other ministry contexts where not everyone is equally interested in being stretched? This session featured insights from a variety of people who love to teach in ways that help people in ordinary congregations learn about worship, the arts, inclusion, and, ultimately, Jesus himself.
