Fire and Wind:
Progressive, Pentecostal, and Process-Relational
May 30 to June 3 2007
Dr. Bruce Epperly
On the Madawaska River (Ottawa) in Ontario, Canada.
Program
Theme: "Fire and Wind: Progressive, Pentecostal, and Process-Relational"
Emphasis: In light of Pentecost, how can progressive/process-relational Christians embody the spirit of pentecost in a pluralistic age? With Acts and John 20 as foundational text, we will explore the vision of process-relational theology as it relates to spirituality, mission and evangelism, social and ecological concern, and vocation. Sessions will involve an interplay of theology, spirituality, and congregational practice.
