Summer Roundtable
About the Conference
"Him we proclaim, warning everyone and teaching everyone with all wisdom, that we may present everyone mature in Christ."
Join us for three days of learning, encouragement, and fellowship! Glean from New Aberdeen faculty and friends about a variety of topics in Classical Christian Education in an intimate setting.
This conference is perfect for parents and teachers in classical schools, homeschools, and co-ops. It will benefit anyone who is interested in learning more about theory and practice.
We named our conference the "Roundtable" to reflect the idea of gathering around a table to discuss literature, theology, and philosophy in the dialogic manner that is consistent with the classical mode of learning. This component will be central to our afternoon sessions. This year's topics of study will include literature, language, music, and theology.
Our confirmed speakers include Carter Ehnis, Rev. Matt Marino, Dr. Brian Phillips, Dr. Abigail Smith, and Dr. Ryan Smith.
