Welcome to the Table
Changing the world through conversation, connection, and community
“Theologians should concentrate less on social arrangements and more on fostering the kind of social agents capable of envisioning and creating just, truthful, and peaceful societies, and on shaping a cultural climate in which such agents will thrive”
Miroslav Volf
