Syncopated Leadership: Jazz for Preachers, Teachers, and Other Servants of Grace

September 19, 2025
Harrington Center Chapel at Columbia Theological Seminary, 701 S Columbia Drive, Decatur, GA 30030

Join us for this leadership seminar and live jazz concert with the Rev. Bill Carter and the Presbybop Quartet!

Even in times of division and diminishment, jazz music thrives through imagination, improvisation, and the building of community within diversity. Could jazz also be a model for leadership? Explore the dynamics of creativity, collaboration, risk, and rhythm, and how they can enrich your leadership with pastor and jazz performer Bill Carter and his quartet.

Attendees can register for the leadership seminar, the jazz concert, or a combined ticket offering discounted access to both. Registration for the combined ticket closes on August 29, 2025.
