Truth Seekers and Truth Teachers
“For the time will come when men will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths.” 2 Timothy 4:3-4
It is with great pleasure that I bring the news to you today about our conference speakers. Dr. Bill Ury and Dr. Steve Blakemore will share the word of truth again this year. This year’s conference will be a dynamic series of sessions that involve presentation and discussions at the tables. This “fellowship of journeymen” was an incredibly powerful format at last year’s conference and we want to continue to build on that.
One thing I have always been able to count on with these two Godly men, is that they will teach, share, challenge and eagerly profess the good news of the gospel. We may not always want to hear the truth, but if we are all honest, we know that we all need to hear it. You will never hear from these two men what your “itching ears want to hear” but rather you will hear the “truth that will set you free”.
We need sound doctrine and these are two of the best teachers in the country who love you enough to not let you turn your ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths. The focus of this year’s conference is to hear in layman’s terms the good news of the gospel and what is the meaning of our lives in light of that gospel. The true gospel is the best news we will ever know.
Unfortunately, there are many churches today where the leaders are fearful to speak the truth. They end up preaching a “don’t rock the boat” sermon week after week and we wonder why the true gospel is not sinking in. I am grateful to both of these men, who have had such a profound influence on my life, for being willing again to share the good news. As disciples of Jesus Christ, we should want to hear, know, understand and experience what it means to have Jesus as our Lord and Savior.
Come to the conference and…. “be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—HIS GOOD, PLEASING, AND PERFECT WILL.” (Romans 12: 2)
God bless,
Scot
