Idea to Action Series
Thinking Deeply, Ministering Intentionally
Introducing the Idea to Action Series, a chance for United Brethren pastors, ministry staff, and laypersons to gather together to learn about and discuss practical ministry.
Each symposium in the Idea to Action Series is free for those wishing to attend. To participate in the Idea to Action series pre-registration is required.
What: Each symposium will include an academic lecture, an exemplary practitioner, and Q&A with a practitioner model.
When: Twice a year, once in the fall and once in the spring, from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.
Where: Join each symposium via Zoom using a link you'll recieve after you register.
Why: The Idea to Action Series exists to:
- Provide theologically informed ministry perspectives
- Provide a consistent source of quality continuing education credits
