Thirdmill Annual Conference

You Will Be My Witnesses!

Studies in the Book of Acts

You Will be My Witnesses!

You are invited to join us in San Antonio for “You Will Be My Witnesses!” This conference on the Book of Acts is offered by Thirdmill Seminary and First Presbyterian Church of San Antonio in partnership with the Zbinden Study Center on February 21-22, 2025.

Dr. Gabriela Tijerina-Pike and Dr. Greg Perry will lead us into key aspects of true gospel witness that were strengthened despite the challenges experienced by the early church.

On Friday evening, February 21, we will focus on how Pentecost establishes an important pattern for our Gospel Show-and-Tell, the proclamation and practices of Christian witness.

On Saturday morning, February 22, we will focus on the intercultural character of Christian witness and explore both its opportunities and common obstacles. This conference will be live-streamed, however no translation will be available. The breakout sessions on Saturday will be in English with Dr. Perry and in Spanish with Dr. Gabriela Tijerina-Pike.
