The theme for Ethos Annual Conference which took place on 23 September, 2023, is "Theology of Mission in the Post-Pandemic Era". This conference was organised in collaboration with eight Bible Colleges and seminaries in Singapore.
The principals of these institutions were of the view that it would be good for the Christian community in Singapore to reflect on the Church's mission after the serious and precedented disruptions caused by the pandemic.
The paper approach the topic from different angles and perspectives although they are all grounded in the teachings of the Bible and motivated by the passion to be a part of God's work in the world. These papers are published in the Ethos Engagement Series for the benefit of those who are interested in this important topic but were unable to be present at the conference, and the wider Christian Public.
