North Judson FftB Conference October 3-4, 2014

We are excited to be going to my hometown to present a Families from the Beginning Marriage and Family conference.  Mark Bailey of Bailey’s Discount Center will open The Carpenter’s Yard for this conference, and we are working with area churches, WKVI radio, and The Market Advertising to reach out to the local area.

As we began to try to connect with Starke county churches, I sensed God leading me to not focus entirely on churches, but to expect this to be an evangelistic outreach:  “There are more than Christians who need to hear this.”  I still don’t know what that will look like,  but it is the reason we are using secular advertising channels.  We are praying that God will change Starke County for His kingdom.

Today I spoke with Eric Rodgers, worship pastor at Elevation Church in Scottsburg, Indiana.  We are extremely blessed that he and his wife Shala will lead the music for the conference.  Also today, I set up the registration page, which is on the North Judson Conference link above along with the details about the conference.

We have been teaching the concepts from our book to a small couple’s group this summer, which gave us the opportunity and motivation to go through the whole book again and make revisions.  We presented the last chapter this week, and today I wrote the last revisions, so we are down to final edits and formatting.  One of the reasons this is so exciting is we hope to self-publish and have the book in print for the conference.

God has been putting things together for this conference, which has been a joy to watch.  We only know what we see on our list of what has to be done, and we are excited to discover how much more God sees and does.  We ask that you pray for this conference, that God will bring all the people He wants to touch, and that we will be faithful to prepare and speak as we ought.
