Beeson to Host Reformation Spirituality Conference

Samford University’s Beeson Divinity School will present a Reformation Spirituality Conference Nov. 1–2.

Topics will focus on themes of 16th-century Reformation spirituality: prayer, worship, spiritual formation, preaching, Bible reading, death and dying, and new developments of hymnody and congregational singing introduced by the reformers.

Guest presenters include Refo500 Director Herman Selderhuis, who will speak on “A New Way of Dying.” Breakout session topics are Learning From Calvin and Bucer About Ministry and Spiritual Growth, Bible Reading and Hearing Through the Work and Ministry of Cranmer and more. A 7 p.m. vespers service on Nov. 1 will feature a Samford School of the Arts ensemble presentation of J.S. Bach’s cantata “Ein Feste Burg,” based on the hymn “A Mighty Fortress.”
