SUMMARY:Feasting: Visual Art & Spoken Word
DESCRIPTION:Feasting is a central theme in our lives and in the story of God\, and this event is an opportunity to reflect creatively on how we experience the goodness of God in material\, sensory\, and edible ways. A series of original paintings by Hilary Siber Edwards are inspired by the Old Testament Feasts of the Lord as filtered through her own story\, and a spoken word performance by Monica Harrison will explore this theme through the gift of words. This event includes a dessert reception\, an opportunity for audience response and Q&A\, and time to mingle and enjoy the artwork and each other. \nHilary Siber Edwards is an artist living and working in Charlotte since 2016. She graduated in 2007 from the Maryland Institute College of Art with a BFA in Environmental Design and in 2015 from Clemson University with an MFA in Painting. Her personal studio work explores the fractured aspects of perception through contemporary landscape painting and sculptures. She creates murals and sculptural installations as well as teaching part-time at the college level. \nMonica Harrison\, South Carolina native\, now residing in Charlotte\, is a dynamic Christian spoken word artist. Her gift allows her to blend life experiences with biblical applications to deliver poetry that encourages\, inspires\, and uplifts audiences. Not afraid to address touchy topics\, her perspective and delivery will capture your attention and leave you better than you were before. She holds to a motto that “one word can change your life.” \nRegister Today

SUMMARY:Telos Bible & Theology Conference
DESCRIPTION:OCTOBER 9-10\, 2026\nJACKSONVILLE\, FL\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Telos 2026\n			\n				Speakers\n			\n				About\n			\n				Registration\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Fourth Annual Telos Conference & Twentieth Year in Jacksonville \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Redeemed & Restored: The Jubilee in Biblical-Theological Perspective\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				The Telos Bible and Theology Conference brings together scholars\, pastors\, leaders\, and laypeople in the greater Jacksonville area to engage robust and accessible theological learning. Hosted by Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary and its faculty\, Telos explores key topics in biblical studies and theology to cultivate Christian maturation across the whole Church. \nAs Gordon-Conwell celebrates 20 years in Jacksonville\, the October 9–10 conference will explore the theme of Jubilee. Join us as we dive into the riches of God’s Word together\, reflecting on the Jubilee and God’s heart for bringing freedom to the captives and rest to the weary. \nGet Early Bird Tickets by July 15 \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				What is Jubilee?\n				Leviticus 25 instructs the Israelites to practice the year of Jubilee\, which required that every 50 years all debts would be cancelled and land that had been sold would revert back to the original owners. \nThis unique practice ensured that once in every generation\, Israelite society would have a “reset”\, in which every person was released from the toil of their labors and burden of their debts to be reunited with family on their ancestral inheritance. \nThe Jubilee was a homecoming that served as a signpost of the coming redemption\, when all creation would be released from its bondage to decay and brought into the freedom of the children of God (Rom. 8:21). \nJesus began his public ministry by announcing that the Jubilee had arrived in him: “Today this Scripture has been fulfilled in your hearing” (Luke 4:21). He came to release those in bondage to sin\, restore them to the Father and secure for them their heavenly inheritance as redeemed children of God. \nAs his body\, the Church is called to proclaim and embody that same Jubilee by bringing freedom to the captive and rest to the weary. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Speakers\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n					\n					\n						Dr. Christine Palmer\n						\n					\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n					\n					\n						Dr. David Palmer\n						\n					\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n					\n					\n						Dr. Scott M.

His research focuses on the covenant at Mount Sinai and the construction of the tabernacle in Exodus 19–40. He also studies the Psalms\, Biblical Theology\, and ancient Near Eastern ritual. He teaches Biblical Hebrew and exegesis\, and is coauthoring a commentary on Exodus for The Bible in God’s World series. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				About the Conference\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				The conference is named after a Greek word (telos)\, meaning “end\,” “consummation\,” or “aim\,” with a view toward encouraging believers to live today in light of the ultimate victory that has been secured in Christ.
