Many campus events are presented by the Theological Commons at MTSO.
We welcome the public to MTSO events, which range from multi-day institutes and workshops to faculty and guest lectures.
Undoing Conquest: Ancient Israel, the Bible, and the Future of Christianity - POSTPONED
MTSO Assistant Professor of Public and Practical Theology Kate Common discusses her new book exploring how biblical conquest narratives shaped Christian ideology, white-settler colonialism and genocide – and what to do about it. This event has been postponed due to a family emergency. We will share a new date in the future.
