Spirit & Truth

September 30, 2022

I first encountered Spirit & Truth via their content-rich, long-running website biblicalunitarian.com. I returned to this often as I wrestled with disentangling my understanding of Scripture from distorting later traditions. They popularized the term “biblical unitarian,” a helpful and more accurate replacement for “Socinian.”

Nowadays they are up to a lot more, including online fellowships, Jerry Wierwille’s Words of Wisdom podcast, teaching videos on the Bible and Christian living by John Schoenheit, and devotional blog posts by Renee Duggan.

The UCA is delighted to have Spirit & Truth as a Conference Partner for this year’s conference. You’ll be able to meet John and Jerry at the Conference; be sure to stop by the Spirit & Truth table to find out more about what they’re doing and how it can benefit you.

Finally, I must mention their amazing REV project, an unabashedly unitarian translation and commentary. (With phone apps too!) Translation always involves at least a little interpretation; thus, every trinitarian translation reflects some level of distortion from traditional Trinity and Incarnation speculations. Here, that layer of distortion is peeled back, and they add very helpful study-Bible-like explanatory notes. I frequently use this resource, and I urge you to check it out.

Williamsburg Christadelphian Foundation

September 29, 2022

The UCA is delighted to again have the Williamsburg Christadelphian Foundation as a Conference Partner. They state that their mission is to help “individuals and families grow their faith in God and His Son. . . We help nurture trust in God and Jesus that endures through all the ups and downs of life. WCF sponsors programs and special initiatives around the world that:

  • Root faith in the word of God, learning from the faith lessons of faithful people in the Bible
  • Nurture faith by supplying tools that spur a whole faith to develop – one of head, heart and hands.
  • Inspire stronger growth by connecting people of faith, fostering a spirit that edifies all.
  • Show faith to others by enabling generous service for Christ.”

You’ll want to explore their podcasts and videos. Music is another aspect of their work, from original recordings of hymns, to Spotify playlists. They also give vital aid to immigrants, and their White Fields mission initiative has placed “140 volunteers in 20 countries on 5 continents.”

Be sure to stop by the WCF table at the conference to find out more about how this amazing organization is serving as salt and light in this broken world.

The UCA Conference has room for you . . . so far!

So many good memories here, so many lovely Christ-followers! Will we see you at the UCA Conference this year?

Our venue is better and bigger than last year, but we anticipate that we may fill it up! So don’t delay; you can register now here.

This year we’ll have informative, cutting-edge presentations like last year, but we’ll also have less-theoretical offerings in the form of hands-on workshops and meet-ups. But it won’t be the same without you.
