"It is Complicated" Conversations at Somervell
Somervell is inviting people who either have found themselves discouraged, and/or hurt by the church, people going through deconstruction of their faith, or people who are just curious about a different kind of Christianity. This is not another conference, but a space for conversation of people who when asked about their relationship with church or faith status, their response is “It is complicated”.
We will have no stage. No VIP speakers. Just human beings having “it is complicated” conversations.
We’ll curate four weeks of creative space, deep dialogue, and shared meal that spark real connection. The goal of this creative space isn’t more content, but activation – ideas that move from imagination to impact.
So please join us for four weeks every Thursday evenings ( 6:30pm start with a meal – 7pm-8pm conversation) November 27th, December 4th,11th and 18th
