The 2024 Bartimaeus Kinsler Institute 2024 is coming. Registration is now open.

February 19-22 2024, in Ojai, California

Register HERE.

BKI 2024 will focus on two longstanding commitments of BCM:

Building capacity for Decolonizing Discipleship and

Sabbath Economics.

These four days offer an opportunity for deep dives into both themes for educator/practitioners.  Two tracks will unfold in parallel:

  • a Healing Haunted Histories track facilitated by Elaine and team (limit 12), and
  • a track examining the Gospel of Luke and contemporary problems of Affluenza and plutocracy facilitated by Ched and team (limit 25). 

Because these themes speak to each other deeply, we will weave them together in plenary sessions to open and close each day.

nurture and remembering, courage and joy… [more]
