Call and Response Conference (Oct. 4–6)

Call and Response Conference: The Past, Present and Future of Black Christians in America
October 4–6, 2018
Northeastern Seminary at Roberts Wesleyan College, Rochester, New York

Taking its name and inspiration from the black preaching tradition in which the pastor and congregation joined together in the effective proclamation of the gospel, this conference will call together church folks, marketplace and nonprofit leaders, pastors, practitioners, artists and activists from across generations to respond faithfully to the challenges and opportunities of the present moment in America. We seek to offer a prophetic witness to the church and the nation while remaining biblically-grounded in a holistic gospel that has the power to transform lives and communities.
