A growing interest in the work of the Holy Spirit is evident in our time. We see this not only in the growing worldwide Pentecostal and charismatic movements, but in many churches Christians are longing for spiritual renewal and the fulfilment of their mission and ministry in the power of the Holy Spirit.
The biennial FEET conference will deal with these themes from a theological perspective. It will discuss the dialogue between the Pentecostal and charismatic movements and traditional churches and provide a biblical perspective on the work of the Holy Spirit, on worship, on the spiritual gifts and on spirituality in Christian ministry. Although we very much regret the renunciation of the personal meeting in Prague in view of the present circumstances, we expect also in this reduced virtual format a dynamic exchange and a lively discussion on this challenging topic. FEET warmly invites theologians from all over Europe to this discussion at its 2020 video conference. You are most welcome! Registration under: www.feet-europe.org or send an e-mail to Dr Klaus Bensel: secretary@feet-europe.org Those who register will receive the texts of the lectures by e-mail a few days before the conference.
Price: The FEET video conference is free of charge. Of course there are expenses for the technical management, so we are grateful for a voluntary donation for FEET which can be given on the FEET website.
