The Christian Church in Georgia is hosting a summer book discussion on Christian Nationalism on July 22, from 7-8 pm, and continuing every 2nd and 4th Tuesday evening through September 9, 2025.

According to the organization Christians Against Christian Nationalism, Christian nationalism is “a political ideology and cultural framework that merges American and Christian identities. Christian Nationalism threatens American democracy, distorts America's promise of religious freedom for all, and distorts Christianity by taking its central message as a gospel of love and turning it into a false idol of power.”  Learn more about Christian nationalism from this list of resources curated by the Christian Church in Georgia.

Several Georgia Disciples clergy-scholars, including Rev. Dr. Jerry Gladson, Rev. Dr. Jarrod Longbons, Rev. Dr. Stan Saunders, and Rev. Dr. Darryl Trimiew, will be leading this series of virtual meetings in June. Contact the Regional Office for the zoom link.

Camp staff and volunteers (directors, counselors and CIT’s) are required to complete “Creating a Safe Environment (CASE),” a child safety workshop suitable for those working in youth-serving ministries. The 2.5 hour workshop offered through the Insurance Board and its partner, Praesidium, is a state of the art, research based, facilitator-led, video-based training that provides practical solutions to navigating the many "gray areas" that can emerge day-to-day. Registration coming soon.

The Regional Board will meet at The Table at First Christian Church Warner Robins for an in-person meeting, located at 100 North Houston Road, Warner Robins, Georgia 31093.

Giving Tuesday is a global movement that celebrates the spirit of generosity and giving. It underscores the collective power of individuals, communities, and organizations coming together to make a positive impact in the world. You can be part of this year’s Christmas Special Offering, which supports the impactful work of regional ministries in the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ). The Christmas Offering is a critical part of the Christian Church in Georgia because 100 percent of giving from Georgia congregations remains in the Georgia region, supporting regional camps, conferences, retreats, and programs, and playing a critical role in calling and ordaining new ministers.

We will meet from 9 am - 12:30 pm with all of the Board members, Staff, Commission Chairs, Ex-Officio members and other attendees.

We will share lunch together from 12:30 pm - 1:15 pm. After lunch Staff, Commission Chairs, Ex-Officio members and other attendees are free to go.

The Executive Committee and all At-Large board members will meet from 1:15 pm - 3 pm to participate in a discernment process regarding significant decions necessary for the direction and focus of our ministry. We truly need all hands and minds on deck from the Executive Committee and At-Large members during this discernment process. For more information contact the Regional Office.
