Thesis

Where argumentation and friendship meet. 

Thesis is a gathering of Christians who are seeking to better articulate how to respond to the to the moral, political, and theological questions that face the church and the culture at large.

We provide the platform, and it is up to our presenters to persuade the audience of his or her argument within 15 minutes or less. The presentations should be driven by a very specific thesis that should be geared primarily to persuade and not simply to inform. Once the presentation is complete, the floor will be open to questions and critique from attendees.
