Beyond Mere Denominationalism in Atla

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: It’s not every professional association whose structure includes denominations. Why does Atla? What are these denominations, and how do they connect with Atla’s member institutions and organizational aims? In this panel paper, T. Patrick Milas surveys the history of Atla’s theological and faith-based aspects, with a focus on denominational groups and related conference worship/devotions. This is followed by a question-and-answer session with panelists representing the Anglican/Episcopal, Anabaptist/Mennonite, Roman Catholic, and Presbyterian/Reformed denominational groups. Each representative discusses different aspects of their involvement and activities within denominational groups along with their perspectives on the activities, needs, and strengths of these groups, in order to discern and inspire their group’s denominational identities and role within Atla.
