Theology Live! line-up for 2019

A day which recognises the breadth of Baptists engaged in theological and biblical scholarship is returning at the start of next year - and a number of speakers have been confirmed

Theology Live! takes place on Thursday 10 January at Bloomsbury Central Baptist Church, starting at 10am. The day follows the format of BMS World Mission's Catalyst Live event, and first took place in December 2017.

This year organisers have increased the number of speakers and are planning more breaks within the day.

'Back by popular demand, following the brilliant event in 2017, we are pleased to announce the 2019 ‘Theology Live!’, they state.

'There’s a great number of Baptists engaged in theological and biblical research, and this day-event brings them together to share their thinking, fostering a community of research amongst British Baptists.

'The day will comprise a series of short papers, reflecting the diversity of current Baptist theological engagement, with opportunities to interact with speakers.'

Confirmed speakers include:

Beth Allison-Glenny
Seidel Abel Boanerges
David Bunce
Andrew Burnham
Tim Carter
Julian Gotobed

Claude Halm
Joe Haward
Rosa Hunt
