Saturday 7 - Saturday 14 January, Snells Beach, New Zealand

In January 2012, 100 young adults from around New Zealand will come together at the Compass summer conference to explore how faith and life connect.

Life throws up big questions: questions of identity, suffering, beauty, joy, vocation, relationship and meaning. Does Christianity have any answers to these questions and are they good ones?

The Compass summer conference is a week-long residential conference that explores these questions. Join us as we walk through the Biblical narrative of Creation, Fall and Redemption, and wrestle with how the Gospel impacts everything, providing a vision of and for life.

What?

We bring together local and international speakers who are gifted communicators and who have thought about the joys and tensions of faith, vocation and culture. Sessions include: Who is God? What does it mean to be human? What is the Bible? How do we engage with culture? What about evil, suffering and grief? What does it mean to live redemptively? and What is our calling in the world?

We hope to spark and grow conversations around the story that God calls us to participate in, how we read culture well, and how to translate faith into life, so that it transforms the people and the world around us.

That is, to know the Gospel, to know the culture, and to translate.
