The journey to good preaching is as filled with twists and turns as a Rocky Mountain highway. Stan Mast is a veteran road warrior who shares hard-won insights into what it takes to become a good preacher. Special attention is paid to the sharp-tongued critics who can drive aspiring preachers off the road.
Participants are invited to engage in a conversation further exploring the issues raised in the plenary session: what it is like to be a Christian and a woman in the Middle East today?
How should we think about the relationship between the local church and parachurch ministries, especially in regard to worship practices? These and other questions will be considered by a panel of scholars and parachurch leaders.

Hymn Fest: “Seasons of Praise,” presented at the Calvin Symposium on Worship 2011

This session equipped and encouraged even the smallest congregation --or small group within a larger community-- to design and experience deep, joy-filled worship using everything God has given them and requiring nothing more.
Dwelling with Philippians interweaves God’s Word with images, poems, and liturgy, nurturing an ongoing interaction. Join two of the editors as we create another level of interaction, exploring themes and patterns, and discussing how many difficult choices were made. You may even get to see some of the “out takes!”
