International Trinity Conference in Wichita, Oct 17-19 at Covenant Presbyterian Church and First Presbyterian Church

If you are interested in further study and reflection on the Trinity and how the Triune God comes in contact with our life and guides us in mission, worship, ethics, Christian community, and the church then please come to our Trinity Conference on October 17-19, 2008 at Covenant Presbyterian Church and First Presbyterian Church in Wichita. We are bringing in three amazing theologians from around the world: Dr. Daniel Migliore from Princeton Theological Seminary; Dr. Cynthia Rigby from Austin Theological Seminary and Dr. Alan Torrance from St. Marys College in St. Andrews, Scotland. All three have written and taught extensively on the Trinity and will bring a clarity and insight into this mystery that will allow us to fully appreciate what it means to call ourselves disciples who believe in a Triune God revealed in Jesus Christ. You can find out more information on the conference if you visit our web site www.covenantwichita.org

Good books and essays to read to prepare for the conference are:
"Faith Seeking Understanding" by Daniel Migliore
"The Power of God and the gods of Power" by Daniel Migliore
"Blessed One" editted by Cynthia Rigby
"More than a Mystery" essay by Cynthia Rigby (teaching the Trinity to youth, available at the ptsem.edu website)
