Bridge: Partners for Discipleship is a new program sponsored by Abilene Christian University’s Siburt Institute for Church Ministry and the Graduate School of Theology. The purpose of this program is to partner with local churches to raise up and further equip leaders within the church. We are excited to come to San Antonio for this Bridge event.
FAITH FORMATION IN A DIGITAL AGE
This year’s focus is “Faith Formation in a Digital Age,” a topic we often associate with young people. However, it truly affects us all as we engage the opportunities and challenges that ever-developing technology creates for Jesus-followers in our world. Theologians, psychologists, and doctors are only beginning to understand the impact that things like smartphones are having on us. But we all know that technology means change, and change can be challenging. We hope you will join us as we consider biblical insights, think about theological implications, and discuss the real-life ministry impact the digital age has on us and our people.
COST AND REGISTRATION
Tickets for our Bridge gatherings cost $60 each, or you can bring your spouse and get two tickets for $100.
