Denver Seminary

The Book of Acts is full of moments where the Holy Spirit moves, communities are transformed, and the gospel takes root in unexpected places.

This week at the 2026 Shannon Preaching Lectureship, ministry leaders got to sit with those passages to study them deeply and carefully together. One participant captured the experience well: "You've got background, you've got layers, and then it just keeps coming back to Acts and what God is doing."

We're grateful for the scholars, preachers, and ministry leaders who made this year's lectureship such a rich experience.

The 2026 Shannon Preaching Lectureship and Seminary is underway this week!

We are honored to welcome Dr. Craig S. Keener, renowned New Testament scholar from Asbury Theological Seminary, as he leads us through the Book of Acts with a focus on Big Idea Expository Preaching.

Ministry leaders will dive deep into Scripture, engage in meaningful discussion, and sharpen their preaching craft. By the end of the seminar, each participant will leave equipped with the foundation for a transformative sermon series from Acts ready to serve and inspire their communities.
