Nurturing Relational Connections Across Boston's Christian Community

Mygration Christian Conference 2024

How can the Christian faith respond to the humanitarian crisis facing migrants and refugees in our modern world? Join us for our 6th annual Mygration Christian Conference, as we explore how the Christian tradition has responded to the needs of migrants and refugees in the past, what is being done in the present, and how together we can transform the future.

Come and explore God’s heart for migrants and refugees in our world today by searching the stories of immigration in the Bible. This conference seeks to empower pastors and Christian leaders with the tools to positively and proactively serve their immigrant communities, and to mobilize them into social action. Learn from pastors, scholars, and community leaders about what it means to care for immigrants in the Church, the academy, and society.

Theology on Tap

If you were going to preach to a robot, how would you begin? Would you introduce the story of Christ as something that could be memorized and passed on? Would you introduce questions of personal behavior and identity? Could robots even understand such a thing? In this engaging talk, Dr. Kirsten Sanders will speak to Theology on Tap on how the story of Christ’s two natures, given in the Chalcedonian definition, helps us to engage questions about artificial intelligence and human existence in the modern world.

Dr. Kirsten Sanders is a systematic theologian whose work has been featured in various publications including Christianity Today, The Hedgehog Review, Comment, Plough, and Mere Orthodoxy. She is the founder and director of Kinisi Theology Collective, a public theology project that aims to bridge the gap between traditional seminary education and the local church.
