The 2022 Festival of Homiletics included participants from all over the world!

We’d love to hear what stood out most for you. Thank you to all who have been sharing their thoughts on social media #Homiletics2022

Festival of Homiletics has been full and, from my experience, fantastic. The preaching, the lectures, the worship and the time with colleagues have been good for my soul. Thank you to all who work so hard to put this together.#Homiletics2022
