Video invitation from Lydia Talbot, co-host of 30 Good Minutes on PBS in Chicago.

Join us in Chicago, April 7-10, 2010, for a once-a-decade multi-faith forum of all levels of communicators of religion.

This extraordinary event brings together over 1,200 communications professionals to expand our experience and broaden our perspective on embracing change.

Social change invites us to new ministries

As religion communicators, we are the purveyors of stories that need to speak in today’s culture. How do we tell the stories of wonder, stories of longing, stories of resilience, stories of forgiveness, stories of other worlds, stories of call to new audiences?

Religious change invites us to new dialogue

As professionals, we communicate religion. How do we help people identify what they’re yearning for, convey that there is a place for them, and speak truth to the community?

Technological change entices us to new modes of reaching out

As communicators, we have ever advancing tools, but we also see a power shift in publishing: through tools such as blogs, everyone has a voice. How do we harness this power for the good of our organizations?
