Conference Questions

Q. Why are you having everyone submit biographical information and a picture?

A. Many conferences just post the the headshots of the “big names” that are being brought in to talk and provide expertise. We tend to think that there are going to be lots of folks coming who bring their own sets of expertise and experience, and that the draw for folks shouldn’t just be two or three speakers at “the main session,” but the opportunity to engage with an event full of people that are themselves compelling. We’re hoping that this is less about the passive reception of information and more about connection, conversation, and mutual engagement. Will there be times when people will just be listening? Yup. And times for facilitated dialogue? Yup. And open times for networking and planning? Yup.

Q. Do I have to use the word “theopoetics” to come? What if I don’t even like that word?

Nope. Not at all. Check out our definitions area and/or our Vision. If you’re into any of that, this is the place for you. 

Q. What is the Sunday morning “open meeting” about? Do I want to be there?

Since the conversation around theopoetics is still a fairly small one and happens among a relatively small number of people, we’re eager to have a space to reflect and “see what’s next” after a day of theopoetics events. The morning is a time to process the event and to reflect on the possibility of future events, collaborative projects, journal activity, etc. If this sounds like something you’d like to be a part of, please stick around!
