The conference aims to explore the transformative role of worship in fulfilling God’s mission through nurturing discipleship. Public worship is not merely an event but a way of life that forms believers, deepens faith and propels the church into mission that changes the world. This conference invites scholars, pastors and practitioners to examine how corporate worship serves as both an expression of and a catalyst for spiritual growth and missional engagement.</div> <div background-color:="" color:="" font-size:="" ibm="" line-height:="" plex="" style="box-sizing: border-box; font-family: " text-align:="">  </div> <div background-color:="" color:="" font-size:="" ibm="" line-height:="" plex="" style="box-sizing: border-box; font-family: " text-align:=""> The Andrews University Music & Worship Conference seeks to provide a forum for scholarly and professional dialogue, the advancement of knowledge, and the promotion of best practices in Christian worship and music.</div> <div background-color:="" color:="" font-size:="" ibm="" line-height:="" plex="" style="box-sizing: border-box; font-family: " text-align:="">  </div> <div background-color:="" color:="" font-size:="" ibm="" line-height:="" plex="" style="box-sizing: border-box; font-family: " text-align:=""> To register, please visit the conference <a href="https://secure.touchnet.net/C20366_ustores/web/store_main.jsp?STOREID=45&SINGLESTORE=true">website</a>.</div> Thu, 29 Jan 2026 09:00:27 +0000 Vespers Worship Experience http://www.andrews.edu/agenda/68414 Come close the Sabbath in a dynamic worship experience, led by the Seminary Chorus, with piano, organ and strings.  Featured artists include Jillian Lawrence and Dominique Rasoanaivo.  This vespers will feature a screening of the video documentary, "Choir on a Mission," detailing the choir's recent mission trip to New York City.
