Ministry in Contemporary Culture Series
A one-day seminar featuring Roger E. Olson and Rachel Held Evans
In a time when “evangelical” has more of a political connotation than a convictional connotation, we need bright voices that can help sort through the noise and imagine a way forward for those who call themselves evangelical.
Roger E. Olson is professor of theology at Truett Theological Seminary in Waco, Texas. Rachel Held Evans is a blogger, speaker, and author of Evolving in Monkey Town and A Year of Biblical Womanhood. Together they will discuss whether there is a future for evangelicalism and, if so, what the future might entail.
