Conferences / retreats and Festivals!
Synergy conference at Derby 20-22 February Rediscovering the way Exploring discipleship as God’s design for the renewal of all things! Long before Christians were called "Christians," they were known as followers of the Way—a radical, countercultural people movement shaped by the life and teachings of Jesus. "Discipleship" is a rarely used word in contemporary culture and within the church it has become one of those words that is used by different people to mean different things - we know it matters, but it can feel elusive or misunderstood.
