“There is not a square inch in the whole domain of our human existence over which Christ, who is Sovereign over all, does not cry ‘Mine!’ˮ
Is our summer school, running from 13 - 20 July 2025, in beautiful Woltersdorf on the edge of Berlin.
It is the place to be if you are a thinking Christian and you want to know better how to connect what you believe with the world we live in. Our courses are led by amazing instructors, who give their time to help us grow in our ability to see Christ as Lord over all that we encounter.
