RESONATE 2025
Christian Wisdom in a Technological World
Resonate Conference is a two-day event on the campus of George Fox University, combining philosophy, theology, science, and art to help us love and be transformed by the good, true, and beautiful Jesus Christ. Through musical performances, keynote lectures from world-class teachers, and deep discussion, Resonate Conference inspires a confident, passionate, and practical Christian faith.
What does faithful living look like in a digital age? Should we harness technology for the kingdom of God? Abstain from it? And how does distinctively Christian wisdom inform our digital practices? Resonate 2025: Christian Wisdom in a Technological World explores these and related questions with special guests Andy Crouch, Tyler Staton, Meghan Sullivan, and Curtis Chang, framed by the profound music of The Brilliance. Join us as we behold Christianity's unique, hopeful, and enriching vision of the good life.
