Ministry Leaders' Summit
2024-09-20 09:00 - 17:00 | Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church, 5555 N Federal Hwy, Fort Lauderdale, FL, 33308, United States
Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church, 5555 N Federal Hwy, Fort Lauderdale will be hosting a Ministry Leaders’ Summit on September 20 from 9 a.m. – 5 p.m.
The God-given right to live and speak the truth in America is being challenged by secularism’s cultural headwinds. God’s creative order for human dignity, sexuality, and freedom of religion no longer reigns preeminently in the American ethos. As a result, every institution in American society is being pressured to adopt ideological stances that undermine human flourishing. To reverse this trend, ministry leaders must boldly step into the current cultural moment, expecting God to accomplish His purposes through their obedience to His will and fidelity to the truth.
The Institute for Faith and Culture and Alliance Defending Freedom are joining forces to encourage, empower, and equip ministry leaders to meet this moment with grace and truth. Come be inspired by the testimonies of courageous leaders and gain knowledge of the legal issues confronting the church so that others can more effectively stand for truth that will transform lives and advance the Gospel for generations to come.

Compelling and Credible Witness: The Church and Politics Conference

As the 2024 election approaches, the role of Christians in shaping the political landscape will be a focal point in media coverage, church discussions, and community and household conversations. For some, the State is viewed as God’s servant for the common good; for others, it poses a challenge to faith and freedom. While some Christians dedicate their lives to political activism, others believe the Church should steer clear of the political sphere.
The conference will cover key topics, including appropriate methods for Christian political engagement, nonpartisan approaches to political involvement, the media’s portrayal of Christians in politics, and how the Church’s role in politics may evolve in response to cultural changes.
Presenters include:

Tim Alberta (pre-recorded presentation): Best-selling author of The Kingdom, The Power, and the Glory: American Evangelicals in an Age of Extremism, award-winning journalist, staff writer for The Atlantic, and former chief political correspondent for POLITICO.
Dr. Ryan Burge: Statistician and expert on religion and politics in the United States, associate professor of political science at Eastern Illinois University, creator of hundreds of data visualizations on American political and religious trends.
Mark Charles: Native American activist, public speaker, consultant, and author
Justin Giboney: (pre-recorded presentation): Attorney, political strategist, minister, co-founder and president of the AND Campaign
Dr. Mark Young: Denver Seminary president

Register to attend the conference in-person at Denver Seminary, 6399 S. Santa Fe Dr., Littleton, Colo., 80120, or via livestream, for no charge at DenverSeminary.edu/TGI.
