We were thrilled at last year’s record turnout of 144 people to hear Darrell Bock and Anthony Bradley discuss economic justice last year. We’re praying to top that this year, and we’re honored to have one of the world’s most distinguished scholars of marriage and family addressing us. So save the date and tell your friends!
Below is a handy list of events at this year’s ETS/EPS that may be of interest. We have included the events we know about; it’s a big program, so if you wish to suggest additions, please contact us.
