Description
This conference took place at Wycliffe College in Toronto.
The Holy Spirit was once called the 'quiet member of the Trinity,' and so has been the Spirit's profile in the history of theology. But by contrast the contemporary scene is flush with competing accounts of the Spirit's work, whether in the depths of the psyche, in political activism, or in renewal movements. Paul treats life in the Spirit in Romans 8 in the richest context: the freedom of prayer to the triune God, the groaning of all creation, the Christian's hope of glory, and our confident battle with the powers of the world. What would it look like for us as Christians, lay and ordained, to develop a rich doctrine of the Spirit for ministry at the present time? Both guest lecturers and members of the Wycliffe faculty will help to answer this question in the second annual Refresh! Conference.
