Christianity, Politics, and Power: What must we do?
The 2026 annual meeting theme is “Christianity, Politics, and Power: What must we do?” The theme draws on the wisdom of our foremothers, Beverly Wildung Harrison, who taught that the art of Christian social ethics lay in asking critical moral questions that were answered by something we must do and Katie Geneva Cannon, who pushed this idea even further by teaching us that authentic Christian ethics results in “doing the work our souls must have.” In a time when armed national guard troops and ICE agents fill the streets of many American cities and our neighbors, friends, and colleagues are experiencing heightened surveillance and apprehension – I hope you will join us in Washington as we ask critical moral questions about what we must do as Christian ethicists in the world today.
