Workshop for campus ministers, pastors, youth leaders, and ministry practitioners
Thursday, September 11, 2025 | 11:45am - 1:15pm
Cost = $10 (includes lunch) 

Join us for an interactive, in-person workshop that will equip you with practical tools and fresh perspectives for reaching the spiritually open. InterVarsity's Mark Matlock will share groundbreaking insights from Barna Group about societal trends and how to meaningfully connect with the 100 million Americans who are spiritually curious but not yet committed.

You’ll learn how to:

• Identify and understand the unique mindset of the spiritually curious, curious skeptics, and naturalists.
• Cultivate authentic conversations that respect curiosity while pointing toward Christ.
• Reframe evangelism for a generation that values exploration over certainty.
• Apply Barna’s latest research to your ministry context—whether on campus, in the church, or in the community.

Through guided discussions, case studies, and collaborative exercises, you’ll leave with a renewed vision for relational, respectful evangelism rooted in the gospel.

Friday Night Lecture Series

Upper House 

Join us for an evening with theologian and biblical scholar J. Richard Middleton. Middleton will explore the provocative question “Does God command immoral actions?” using the story of Abraham and Isaac (Genesis 22) as a central example, inviting us to engage deeply with the moral and theological complexity of this foundational text.

Friday Night Lectures feature three short, engaging talks interwoven with live Q&A, table discussion, and time to connect with others. Attendees will enjoy a welcoming atmosphere with complimentary beverages and hors d'oeuvres as we reflect on challenging questions of faith, Scripture, and ethics.
