How does Jesus show up in the classroom? The 2026 CSC Conference invites Christian educators and leaders to explore “With: Incarnational Education in Canada Today” with theologian and pastor Revd Dr Sam Wells. Through a rich progression of teaching—from the first night’s sermon “God on Fire” (Exodus 3) to two keynote addresses, “Before the Foundation of the World” and “Making Christ Present” — Dr Wells will guide participants into a deeper understanding of how the very heart of Christian faith lies in God’s desire to be with us. Together, we’ll consider how this incarnational vision shapes our calling as educators: to make Christ’s presence known in classrooms, communities, and the daily life of our schools.
