Shame is a feeling we regularly hear about in the culture and the church, but how well do we understand what the Scriptures have to say about it? During our 2023 Summer Institute Pre-Conference, we will consider how to care for those who have experienced the painful impacts of shame, and discover how Jesus Christ's cross offers real hope to strugglers who feel defined by their past or rejected because of it."

How do people really change? The Gospel is at the heart of all true transformation, but what does that mean? Can someone practically change at all, apart from the implanting of the Gospel? Join us as we unearth the riches of the Gospel and see how God’s Word alone can effectuate radical growth and transformation. We’ll dig deep into the mystery of God’s grace as we seek to equip the Church for the ministry of Gospel Care.
