July 14 @ 8:00 am - July 18 @ 5:00 pm

Black Theology Leadership Institute conference 2025

Reimagining The Black Church – The Past Promise and Prophetic Potential of Black Theology

The Black Church has long served as a beacon of hope, resilience, and justice, deeply rooted in the spiritual and social life of African Americans. From its early foundations during slavery through its pivotal role in the Civil Rights Movement, the Black Church has continually reimagined itself as a force for liberation and transformation. Yet, as we stand at the crossroads of new challenges—racial injustice, economic inequality, political unrest, and the shifting landscape of religious life—it is time to revisit the past promise of Black Theology and uncover the prophetic potential of the Black Church for the future.

This conference seeks to engage scholars, clergy, activists, and community leaders in a critical exploration of the historical contributions of Black Theology, while imagining its role in addressing contemporary issues. We will reflect on the ways the Black Church has served as a prophetic voice for justice and equality and discuss how it can continue to shape the future through leadership, innovation, and advocacy.
