HEAR WHAT RSN PARTICIPANTS ARE SAYING
From a professor of theology and biblical studies (USA):
"I grew immensely in my understanding of the Roman Catholic Church and appreciation for how important it is for evangelicals to carefully evaluate Roman Catholicism as an overall system of belief before seeking to make decisions about how to engage in my particular contexts. The faculty and other participants offered invaluable insights and conversations toward that end."
From a church planter and professor who has taught Church History about Roman Catholicism for decades (Australia):
"RSN has made an immense impact on my teaching and ministry. Having grown in my understanding both of Roman Catholicism as a theological system as well as how this manifests itself concretely, I am better able to equip others in the task of understanding Catholicism, as we seek to engage Catholics around us with the good news of Jesus."
From a Bible and theological educator of missionaries in Eastern Europe and Russia (Poland):
"Rome Scholars Network 2018 was the third edition of the event in which I participated and, as in the previous two, I found plenty to learn both in terms of purely historical or theological knowledge and in terms of applying this knowledge wisely to my calling as a minister and as a teacher. I highly recommend participation in the RSN to anyone who teaches or ministers in a Roman Catholic context...
I grew up in the Roman Catholic Church, I have ministered for years in a culture dominated by it, I have received graduate theological training in a highly respected evangelical institution, and yet participation in the RSN was, in many ways, an eye-opener for me. People who lead the project wonderfully combine their love and commitment for the Gospel with immense historical, academic and personal expertise in the complex reality of Roman Catholicism. This is a very needed initiative that enriches and equips the Church for its ever challenging mission to proclaim the true Gospel of Jesus Christ to the dying world around us."
