Webinars at The Seattle School
Introducing Faculty Webinars!
A free online conversation series with Seattle School faculty and friends
In a world shaped by fragmentation, anxiety, and quick answers, many of us are longing for a different kind of learning that makes space for complexity, depth, and honest conversation. The Seattle School invites you to join a global community of healers exploring provocative, challenging, and nuanced perspectives in theology, psychology, and culture to discover G-d at work beyond certainty and stability. In times of fragmentation and accelerating crisis, our society often pushes us toward simple answers and definitive solutions. Yet these responses can unintentionally reinforce the very dynamics of disconnection we hope to mend.
These free webinars invite us to a different kind of educational posture: where we learn to listen deeply to the pains of our world, holding its complexity with attention and care. Intentionally designed for the next generation of healers and rebuilders exploring theology, psychology, and culture in an educational space that honors:
- Formation Without Fixing
- Curiosity Over Control
- Being with (rather than solving) Uncertainty
Upcoming Webinars
The False Gospel of More: The Church, Capitalism, and the Obsession with Growth
Dr. Andrew Root & Dr. Joel Kiekintveld
November 5, 2026 | 9:30 am – 11:00 am PT
What if the Church has mistaken growth for faithfulness? In a culture that measures success by scale and influence, what would it mean to pursue a different vision of ministry?
Join Andrew Root, PhD, scholar of theology, ministry, and culture, as he discusses the forces shaping the Church’s pursuit of growth and scale. Drawing from his latest book, Baal and the Gods of More, Root traces the roots of this fixation and invites us to imagine a way of being beyond the capitalist promise of more. In conversation with Joel Kiekintveld, PhD, affiliate faculty in theology and culture at The Seattle School, we’ll explore how the Church became caught in a cycle of performance and striving, and what it might look like to break free.
