APT NEWS & RESOURCES

“Forming Practical Theologians” in San Diego this weekend! Plus, a note about our email list.

If you are in San Diego for the American Academy of Religion conference this weekend, don’t forget about our APT session on Saturday at 1:00. It promises to be excellent. Details are below.

By the way, over the last several months, we have switched “email marketing” software providers, and it’s been a bit of a rickety process. Normally you would have gotten an “email blast” by now from us with a fall update. That’s why I posted it here to the website while we are making the software transition. The kinks seem to be worked out now, and I’ll send a post-AAR email to the membership to catch you up on everything.

Here’s the information on our session in San Diego this weekend– hope to see you there–
