Christians today seek a theology broad enough not only to critically integrate modern science but also to face major challenges like climate change and political divisions. Based in a trinitarian and Christological framework, this talk outlines a theology of “deep reconciliation” which argues that human salvation is not only a matter of right relation to God but also to land, institutions, and other creatures. In passing it will note points of compatibility and conflict with science.
Adrian Langdon is Director of the Leadership Center at The Presbyterian College and an affiliate faculty member at McGill’s School of Religious Studies. He is a constructive theologian interested in a generous orthodoxy that creatively and practically responses to contemporary contexts. This talk draws from material in his most recent book, Barth and Ecotheology: The Electing God and the Community of Creation (Routledge, 2025).

Many churches today feel as though they are simply trying to survive—managing declining resources, ageing congregations, and an increasingly complex world. Even for missioners and church planters working in these challenging contexts, the reality is demanding. But the gospel has never called us merely to survive. It calls us to be faithful disciples, attentive to where the Holy Spirit is already at work, and courageous enough to join in God's mission with imagination and hope.
Now in its third year, this online conference builds directly upon the conversations and themes of 2025 and 2026, offering a space to deepen our collective missional work and to discern God’s dream for the future.
Join us on Zoom for practical teaching and sharing of inspiring real-life stories of missional communities. Watch for updates on our dynamic speaker line-up, panel discussions and more!
