The 2022 Rochester L'Abri Conference "Image and Identity in a Culture of Confusion" takes the general theme of 'Identity Formation'. Our current Cultural Confusion is manifested in many areas – the Sexual Revolution, Identity Politics, Social Media, etc – and in past conferences we have often looked at the moral issues involved. This year we want to look at their ideological roots and the challenge they pose to Identity Formation. In contrast to our culture’s obsession with Social Media Image and Political Identity, our formation should be grounded in the Image of God and oriented by our Identity in Christ.
