EFCA Theology Conference 2013 - Recordings and Notes
The Theology Conference on “Sex Matters: The Theology of Human Sexuality” was excellent! The speakers did a exceptional job, the interdisciplinary approach was very helpful for people, and the dialogue that happened during the panels among panelists and the questions asked by attendees, along with the discussion that happened among people between sessions was great.
There is a tremendous need and benefit to host a Theology Conference as we did, and those who attend gain immensely. We in the EFCA national office believe a Conference like this provides education, equipping and resources for those serving in the EFCA on the front-lines of local church ministry.
However, we realize that all are unable to attend because of limited time and budgets. Additionally, there are many excellent Conferences these days, our EFCA Theology Conference being one of those.
Bearing this in mind, we intend that the content of our Theology Conferences will have a longer shelf-life and be a greater resource to those beyond those in attendance so we record them. You can either go to the web page where all of the information about the Conference is located, or access each of the lectures and accompanying notes below. You will find these resources extremely helpful!
