Our theme this year is continuous with what God has led us from our previous year’s conference – “Look Up & Look Out.” (Luke 21:28 and John 4:35). The basic message was realizing the urgency of Jesus’ return and seeing that there is much work to be done. Continuing along those lines our theme this year is “Solid Root - Glorious Fruit" (Psalm 92:12-13) - being able to stand firm in our faith so that nothing will “uproot” it and at the same time, allowing our faith to grow deep so that it would bear fruit and allow us to be able to stand in the gap for others.

Glorious Fruit - (Evening Message Focus - Claude Hubbard)

We are often told that we should believe in Christ and that He should determine how we live. But why should we? What happens when we do? In the evening messages, will we see the result of sinking our roots deep into the fertile soil of the Gospel by coming to understand how Christ changes how we deal with the challenges and blessings of our life. By looking at the ways that our society and the Bible approach anxiety, fear, suffering and money, we will come to see that our society’s ways of dealing with these issues ultimately must fail of their own accord because they cannot handle the weight that we ourselves put upon them. When we examine the way that Jesus Christ affects these same issues, we will find that the Gospel offers us a different way, a ‘third way’ of resolving our struggles with these things.
