The Moderator’s Colloquium on Ecclesiology invites a national conversation on the campus of Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary on April 23-25, 2013 as we consider Jesus Christ’s continual and enduring call upon the Church to be the gathered-sent community. In the midst of great, fast-paced changes happening in the PC(USA), in Christianity in general, and in society, we Presbyterians respond with restructuring and renaming committees, reconfiguring staff, or tinkering with rules, processes, and procedures. How can our starting and end points, and the journey in-between, be continually shaped and informed by a theological framework shared through the ages: whose center and circumference is the One who encounters us whenever we gather in Word and Sacrament, and wherever we are sent to live out the Gospel Monday through Saturday? This conversation will include the seminary community, invited presenters and respondents, area churches, registered participants and the Church at-large as a virtual community streamed live via the Web and a live teleconference.
