Disabiliity Theology: Combating the Cult of Normalcy

Thursday, March 21
7:00pm-8:00pm Eastern

In this workshop ed by Rev. Dr. Milton Keys, we will examine the intersection of racism and ableism.  We will explore how perceptions of wholeness and healthiness have fueled discriminatory practices as well as how disability theologians offer an alternative to this narrative. Rev. Dr. Keys is a preacher, teacher, and producer.  As a disability theologian and advocate Keys seeks to build the beloved community by helping churches become welcoming and accessible to people with disabilities.

Decolonizing the Great Commission: 2024 Annual Gathering

Friday-Sunday, April 12-14, 2024
Myers Park Baptist Church
Charlotte, North Carolina


We can’t wait gather with you at Myers Park Baptist Church in Charlotte, North Carolina from April 12-14, 2024! Registration is now open. If you’d like to be a part of the planning conversations, email us at info@allianceofbaptists.org.

And if you’d like to help us offset the costs that come with gathering in-person, you can make a donation HERE anytime.

About our Theme: We will take a close look at another foundational principle of the Alliance: partnership in ministry. True partnership cannot be built when we hear Jesus’ call in Matthew 28 to go and make disciples with colonizing ears. Together, let’s discern how we can hear Jesus’ sending words with new ears for a new day as we partner in ministry.

Black History Month Teach-In

Led by our co-director, Reverend Elijah R. Zehyoue, Ph.D., we looked at Vincent Harding’s text “There Is A River”, as we examined the significance of Black history today, especially as more states restrict and suppress this important history.
