The Hip-Hop Generation Has Changed the World: Who Will Change Their World with the Gospel?

19 May 2025 | Efrem Buckle

"Since its inception, hip-hop has evolved into a multi-trillion-dollar industry, shaping music, fashion, and social movements across the globe. More than just a genre, it is a cultural powerhouse that has influenced politics, identity, and storytelling on an unprecedented scale. National Geographic hails hip-hop as ""the world's favourite youth culture,"" noting that ""just about every country on the planet seems to have developed its own local rap scene."" Hip-hop isn’t just a global phenomenon—it’s a mission field.

Does Science Disprove God?

20 May 2025 | Alexander Fink

Many people still think that you can’t believe in God and science at the same time. Has science truly disproved the existence of a personal God? Asking this question can trigger very interesting conversations about worldview presuppositions, the scientific method, and evidence. In this talk, we explore some of these arguments and their limits, ultimately showing that good reasoning points in the opposite direction: that a personal creator exists.

Career Decisions: Finding One’s Way in the Academy

20 May 2025 | Anna Fiona Weiss

Many PhD students have a passion for academic research and teaching, and they would love to stay in academia, possibly becoming professors. Too often, however, they realise how many hindrances and unknown criteria appear on the way and give up. In this talk we interview different committed Christian academics who are in various stages of their careers facing a vast array of questions, opportunities, and challenges. Through this, we learn how a Christian can prepare well for an academic career.

Leading with Integrity and Vulnerability

21 May 2025 | John Kirkpatrick

Among the many qualities of leaders, integrity and vulnerability stand out. Without integrity, leadership is emptied of any meaning. But how is integrity developed and maintained in a fallen world? Vulnerability might seem incompatible with strong leadership, but it is strength of a different sort. In this session, we will investigate both of these character traits and consider how embracing and enjoying the Gospel is the key to leadership that inspires and best serves the purposes of God.

Stories as a Trojan Horse for Truth

20 May 2025 | Keith Ogorek

Technology has radically changed the world for authors and filmmakers and created new opportunities for Christians to use books, shows, and movies to capture the imagination of people and open doors for conversations about the most important issues of life. In this talk, Keith Ogorek draws from his years of working in publishing and connecting independent authors to Hollywood to show how there has never been a better time to tell meaningful stories through publishing and video.

Reading the Ceremonial Laws with Jesus: Levitical Food Laws and World Mission

18 May 2025 | Steffen Jenkins

The ceremonial laws, and frankly most of Leviticus, are on any short-list for neglected passages in the Bible. Prohibitions of certain foods are stellar examples of why the Law has nothing to do with our ethics. We will attempt to read them within both the big sweep and the tiny details of how God revealed himself through Moses. We will find good reasons to believe Jesus when he said that the whole of the Law was about him, and that it predicted the spreading of the gospel from Jerusalem to the ends of the earth (Luke 24:47).

Building Your Church's Culture of Evangelism

2 Corinthians 4:1-6 is perhaps the most important passage on evangelism in the Bible.

Understanding N.T. Wright and the New Perspective on Paul

19 May 2025 | Ádám Szabados

N.T. Wright is a challenging theologian for evangelicals. He defends truths that are important to us, like the resurrection of Jesus and the importance of salvation history. But he advocates for an alternative understanding of the doctrine of justification by faith, which is known as the New Perspective on Paul. In this talk, we unpack N.T. Wright’s teaching of the New Perspective on Paul.

Worship Evangelism: How Authentic Worship Draws People to Christ

18 May 2025 | Derek Brandt

Worship Evangelism challenges traditional evangelistic methods by asserting that authentic worship can serve as a powerful form of outreach. This talk explores how engaging in genuine, God-focused worship can draw seekers into an encounter with the divine presence, making worship a bridge for evangelism. We discuss the idea that worship should not be about performance but about creating an environment where God is central, and people are invited into a transformational experience.
