Sermons 2040: Preaching in an Intercultural Church with an Intercultural Future
Featuring Dr. Jared Alcántara

Western Theological Seminary's Bast Preaching Initiatives emphasize preaching as a vocation worthy of our lives. We believe it is essential for preachers to dwell in the Bible and allow the Bible to dwell in us.

The Bast Preaching Festival is an opportunity for pastors, teachers, and communicators to gather and grow through lectures, workshops, and worship.

The cost to attend is $50.
