Resisting christian nationalism webinar: "In the spirit of king and bonhoeffer"

1/8/2026

From St. John's Senior Warden, Sarah Jones:

Join us for any and all of of a livestream event featuring two Bonhoeffer scholars next Saturday, January 17th (MLK weekend). Running roughly 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., it comprises two plenaries, a panel and a closing service. Of course you can register yourself and watch it anywhere you like, but we plan to screen the livestream in the sanctuary at St. John’s. And we’ll be doing it in community. We will offer light refreshments but will break for lunch on our own (bring a brown bag or go off-campus). Donations toward the screening are welcome but not necessary.

Learn about the intersecting legacies and lessons of Dietrich Bonhoeffer and Martin Luther King, Jr., while deepening your understanding of how people of faith can confront and resist the growing forces of authoritarianism and Christian nationalism in our own time. Being rooted in learning and worship, we’ll dream together about how to make a world to best live into our own calls to seek justice and peace.
