2024 Annual Conference: The One Thing Necessary
June 11, 2024
KLC hosts a variety of private events within our hubs and seminars, a monthly open prayer meeting, and occasional public events with our members and partners, which typically happen on the third Thursday of each month. We also host a biennial conference in Cambridge and our annual meal during SBL in North America.
Below you can sign up to receive our monthly prayer liturgy and meeting details, see any upcoming public events, and watch recordings of past events.
Prayer is at the heart of KLC’s work. Under the leadership of Hugo Herfst, we will host an hour prayer meeting on the first Thursday of every month at 4pm UK time that is open to the whole KLC community.
We email meeting links on the day of the event. Please make sure to check your spam folder if you don’t get one.
The Scripture and Hermeneutics Seminar continues its multiyear project exploring difficult texts as Christian Scripture. The focus for 2026 is Joshua and Judges. Our question is: How do Joshua and Judges form and shape us into the people God is calling us to be in Christ?
Join us for our second of three online events to consider questions of intertextuality / reception history in these fascinating books. We’ll enjoy two short presentations from Grant LeMarquand and Don Springer.

Grant LeMarquand
Grant LeMarquand (Th.D., Wycliffe College / University of Toronto) is Emeritus Professor of Biblical Studies at Trinity Anglican Seminary (Ambridge, PA) and retired Anglican Bishop of the Horn of Africa. He is the author of numerous studies on the intersection of the Bible and Africa and the Bible and mission.
Don Springer
KLC Arts is hosting a mini-conference in collaboration with the St Edward’s Institute for Christian Thought on the theme of “Imaginative Encounters: Imagination, Presence and Place.”
Interspersed with music and prayers, we will explore the interaction between the visual and the textual through such themes as ‘sacramentality’, ‘contemplative vision’, and ‘the visible and the invisible in art and theology’. We expect papers by members of the KLC community including Sara Osborne, Otto Bam, Genevieve Wedgbury, and the Rev. Dr Craig Bartholomew, as well as by the Rev. Dr Mark Scarlata, vicar of St Edward King and Martyr Church and author of multiple books including Wine, Soil, and Salvation in the Hebrew Bible and New Testament.
Our aim for the day is to plant seeds that will blossom in future gatherings and publications in theology and the arts. Lunch will be provided and a wine reception will follow at the end of the day.
Tickets at £10 per ticket will go on sale on Monday 25 June with discounts for KLC Fellows.
Register your interest – we will send you a link to the booking page once ticket sales open.
Thursday, 18 June 2026.
In person at St Edward King and Martyr Church in Cambridge.
