What does it mean to preach and lead worship in these perpetually unprecedented times? From war to genocide to a global climate crisis to a nation that perpetuates racism, misogyny, transphobia, and more from the highest office in the land, how do we prepare a sermon, a liturgy, a song, a prayer? As faith leaders, we are always called “for such a time as this,” whatever “this” might be. And as we feel the pace of a second Trump presidency and the ever-widening divide between right and left, rich and poor, us and them, we need a prophetic and pastoral call to lead us through this long arc of the moral universe as we do our part to help it bend towards justice.

In this online summit you will hear from preachers, worship leaders, and digital ministry experts as we explore what it is we are called to for such a time as this and how we might find our way there together.
