“Here I Stand With God”, with the Rev. Dr. Sam Wells
Thursday, November 16, 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.
Online
Hosted by the Clergy Formation Committee

We are delighted to welcome the Rev. Dr. Sam Wells, Vicar of St. Martin-in-the Fields and Visiting Professor of Christian Ethics at King’s College, for an online event for clergy on November 3.

Active and retired clergy, please register in advance for this meeting here. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting.

Known as one of the most creative theologians writing today, Sam Wells has become most associated with the practice of being with, as distinguished from three other ways of relating – working for, working with and being for. In a dozen books published over the last 12 years, he explores the full implications of the notion of being with in relation to mission, ethics, pastoral care and social welfare. More recently he has explored the significance of this notion for the core tenets of Christian theology – God’s purpose in creating, in coming in Jesus, and in bringing the universe’s story to an end. His ideas are challenging and transformative in their implications for conventional understandings of Christian doctrine and put him in tension with the majority of theologians through the centuries.
