Annual Meeting 2023 Program Book

Launching in 2023, Theologia is seeking to promote and celebrate women working in the field of Christian theology through an annual networking event and to encourage these scholars by cultivating spaces for fellowship, mentoring, and academic engagement among women in Christian theology. We welcome women who are members of the American Academy of Religion, the Evangelical Theological Society, women pastor theologians, and beyond. If you are a woman and consider yourself a Christian and theologian (even if en route), please join us as we gather for a meal, fellowship, and a short program the Friday before AAR. This lunch is being generously sponsored by: Baker Academic, Baylor University Press, B&H Academic, Eerdmans Publishing Co., IVP Academic, Wipf and Stock Publishers, Zondervan Academic, and Western Theological Seminary. To cover the cost of the event, attendees will also be asked to contribute $20. Financial help is available. RSVP required to attend.

**By Invitation Only**

Come to network and enjoy the camaraderie of the Women's Caucus. Learn about the caucus and join in this workshop-style session as we engage the 2023 AAR conference theme, “La Labor de Nuestras Manos” from the perspective of those researching on gender and religion. Join in this exciting conversation as we share ideas on how we might advance the public engagement of this topic through our research, in our institutions, and beyond. As part of the program, we would like to give a warm welcome to international scholars and encourage them to attend our gathering.
