In our chaotic and muddled up world, we often feel cut adrift, tired from trying to change the course of our lives and of history. when we come to the end of ourselves, and find that there is no more we can give, we look to God to be our sustainer. Join us for SOUNDCHECK13, where we will learn together what it means to drift into the perfect purposes of our creator.

 

Soundcheck is the SPEAK Network’s annual gathering. In a fantastic creative venue in East London, we play host to an exciting and inspiring selection of workshops, talks and live music. Chilling out in our cafe, you will encounter a diverse community of individuals hoping to change the world, and have an opportunity to discuss and discover what the Christian faith has to do with justice.

Speakers::

STEVE CHALKE has long been a prominent Christian voice for social justice, and is the founder of the Oasis Trust, Stop the Traffik and Faithworks. He is also a UN Special Advisor on Human Trafficking. Steve is a long-time supporter of SPEAK, and is on our council of reference.
ELAINE STORKEY is the president of Tearfund, and the UK’s leading feminist theologian. She is passionate about justice and transformation, and was named one of the top 100 women public intellectuals by The Guardian. In 2010, she founded Restored with her husband Alan, an organisation advocating for women who are victims of violence.

Workshops::

Our ‘Pods’ will host a range of workshops, covering everything from sustainable lifestyles to creative campaigning, from the theology of justice to living in prayerful community. Faith, Arts, Campaigning, Community, Faith and Prayer – it’s all here!

SPEAK Flix::

Our new slot for engaging with some of the superb documentaries and inspiring films highlighting themes of faith, hope & global justice.

Check2:

For those of us that have emerged from the white heat of student life, and struggle to juggle campaigning for justice with the grown-up responsibilities of work and families, join us in Check2 to share stories and ideas with others who live and work with the same struggles.
