SUMMIT FOR MUSIC FACULTY
& THEOLOGIANS

The Summit for Music Faculty & Theologians functioned as an addendum to the Worship Conference 2022, although it was not an official part of the event. The organizers took inspiration from the annual Bible Faculty Summit, hosted by various fundamental Bible colleges and universities. Topics of discussion included the nature of music making or musical sound, transcendence in music, and more.

The goals for the summit were:
  • To foster broad and deep discussions on music and related topics at professional, technical, research, and theological levels.
  • To further the field of inquiry into a biblical theology of music.
  • To encourage fellowship and networking of like-minded people with professional or personal interests in these topics in a warm, collegial, supportive atmosphere.
