In today’s political climate, often marked by cynicism and despair, this weekend will help Christian young people become messengers of hope. In a world dominated by digital distractions that prize clickability and shock value over depth, Ink & Impact develops writers who can articulate complex political topics in an approachable, nuanced way to inform the public.
The gathering will feature lectures from professional journalists, thought leaders, published authors, and policy writers, alongside workshops where these professionals will work with attendees directly. Young Christian people are invited to grow their writing skills through researching a policy issue and developing their own article over the course of the weekend. These articles will be published on CPJ’s online publication, Shared Justice, after the event.
This gathering will take place at CPJ’s office in Alexandria, VA, just a stone’s throw from Washington, DC. All participants will receive a travel stipend to assist with the costs of attendance.
Writing in the public square isn’t for the faint of heart, but neither is the Christian life. If you’re ready to use your pen to serve God, advance justice, and transform public life — this weekend is for you.
