About:
Still Deeper exists to encourage people to go deeper in their appreciation of theology, culture and ministry.
This is our second day conference, which is focusing on the issue of the Darkness round the Cross. You can read about our previous conference at www.stilldeeper.com.
The day will be a thoughtful, evangelical exploration of the aspects of the cross which we find difficult to face – God's anger, judgement and violence.
The day promises a deeper sense of wonder at what God has done on the Cross. It is, of course, also hoped that you will enjoy the opportunity to meet new people.
The price includes refreshments - please bring your own lunch or plan to purchase food from Liverpool St station, a few minutes walk away.
