We invite presenters from across disciplines, professional fields, and faith traditions. Regardless of religious background or affiliation, we welcome faculty, staff, and their student collaborators to propose papers or panel discussions on a broad array of topics related to the conference theme. For those wishing to participate but unable to travel, we anticipate offering an abbreviated online track. If this is the case, please note this on your proposal submission.

To submit a proposal, please complete the ALCF Proposal Submission Form.

If accepted, you should prepare a paper of about five double-spaced pages. These will be linked in the Proceedings of the Conference. Oral presentations at the conference will be 20 minutes each (please include time for questions) and be organized into several concurrent sessions. Roundtable discussions and workshops may be between 30-45 minutes.

Proposals are due by August 15, 2025.
