Session Description
Does what we say we believe affect how we worship? With the rise of recent statements like the Accra and Belhar Confessions, many church leaders are dusting off historic confessions, wondering what role they could or should still play in the worship, life and thought of church members. This seminar will consider the educational and liturgical use of confessions from several different denominational perspectives.
