FTS 2022 Missiology Lectures

The role, status, and experience of women in the church and in the  world represent a fundamental missiological issue of our day. These  lectures center the conversation on naming the resources women bring to  addressing personal, organizational, and social structure, as well as  spiritual powers. The conference theme will be explored by scholars and  practitioners from a variety of disciplines including missiology,  theology, psychology, marriage and family therapy, sociology, history,  and biblical studies.

Through lectures, panel discussions, and breakout groups, conference  participants will have the opportunity to reflect on the ways women may  dismantle barriers and enact their personal and collective agency to  engage social, cultural, organizational, and spiritual power for the  sake of the outworking of God’s shalom in their communities and  contexts. These virtual lectures, with a node in Ghana, will equip the  church to faithfully respond to God’s invitation to women to participate  in God’s work in the world.
