The idea of this gathering emerged from some informal musings amongst UCA ministers about expanding the opportunities for theological conversations. It is hoped that this will be the first of several similar events.
On this occasion, the theme will be preaching, with conversation-starter presentations from Rev Dr Craig Thompson and Rev Assoc Prof Robyn Whitaker.
Beginning with the observation, attributed to Stravinski, that “Vivaldi did not write 400 concertos; he wrote once concerto 400 times,” Craig will explore whether there is something constant about preaching when everything else is changing.
With reference to the legacy of Albrecht Dürer’s Apocalypse woodcuts on the reception of the book of Revelation, Robyn will address how preaching engages popular understandings of biblical texts.
