S Y M P O S I U M 2009 November 12 – 14 The vision of Rosedale Bible College is to be a center for the advancement of an engaged and evangelical Anabaptist faith. An outgrowth of this vision has been the Evangelical Anabaptist Symposium series, in which we explore the unique perspectives of contemporary evangelical Anabaptism and work at building up a church that both knows Christ deeply and follows him in active witness. Reaching Out Without Selling Out is the fourth such gathering. You are invited to join us as we discuss, pray about, and work together on how to live out the values of grace and truth, especially when they appear to be in conflict. We have invited practitioners from across the Anabaptist faith family to challenge our thinking on how we can engage a lost and violent world for the cause of Christ.
