When our churches are welcoming and hospitable places for people of all backgrounds, we become more truly the Body of Christ. When we draw on everyone’s gifts, we become more effective in shared mission and ministry. However, we all have biases which come from our experiences, culture and the media. These influence how we make judgements and assessments of people. This course seeks to encourage everyone who has a leadership role in our churches — whether lay or ordained — to think about how we might become more diverse and inclusive, and how we might release everyone's gifts. Registration and refreshments from 9.30am, for a prompt 10am start.

Located in the heart of London, Hermeneia exists to train Christians in their knowledge, understanding, study, and application of the Bible for their own spiritual maturity and for faithful ministry in the local church. This training includes equipping men for faithfulness in expository preaching as they learn how to prepare and deliver sermons. Our desire is to see the church in the U.K. strengthened as more Christians grow in their understanding and love for God's word. Read the Bible in 10 months and attend in-person lectures. Hermeneia’s Bible Survey course will help students begin to understand the Bible in its original context and, thus, be able to apply the Bible more accurately today.

I reported back to the PCC that it is down to all of us, don’t leave it the vicar. Since then we have built such a community with us all mucking in making such a welcoming and enjoyable atmosphere." Rosemary Campbell. (A previous attendee of the conference.) As a mission and ministry team, we strongly believe that this conference can play a key part in the development of healthy, growing, mission focused churches and that is why we choose to heavily subsidise the places.
