Alex Russell – Our Kingdom Call: Making Disciples on Christ’s Authority

We live in a time in which, arguably, the gospel is needed more than ever. Nations have lost their mooring in God, society has altogether traded the truth for a lie, and humanity seems to be drowning in a sea of its own debauchery. Such a dark and seemingly hopeless context might be cause for the church’s dismay, were it not for the authority of Christ. It is there that the church today stands upon His manifold power and promises to enable and ensure our gospel efforts.

Clint Humfrey – The Uncomfortable Pew: Canadian Evangelicals in Crisis

Canada’s Evangelical churches are facing a crisis. Will they retrieve a confident orthodoxy that stands against the sexual revolution, or will they accommodate worldliness in order to maintain an influx of nominal seekers? The prospects for Evangelicalism in Canada offer reasons to be discouraged, but many other reasons to be confident, hopeful, and expectant.

Justin Peters – Charismatic Confusion

The prosperity gospel essentially holds that it is always God’s will for a Christian to be wealthy and always God’s will for a Christian to be physically healed. If we struggle financially or get sick, then prosperity and physical healing are guaranteed provided that we have enough faith or sow a seed (give money) to a preacher in order to reap a harvest.

This movement, tragically, is the face of Christianity around the world and it is leading untold millions of people into a different gospel – and a different gospel does not save. It is not only my desire to expose the error but also to equip the saints to “speak the truth in love” (Ephesians 4:15) with the aim of rescuing people out of this dangerous deception.

Jacob Spenst – Fulfilling Ephesians 6:4 & Homeschooling

As the rapid moral degradation of our North American culture continues, Christian parents, and fathers particularly, are tasked with ensuring the next generation is raised in the discipline and instruction of the Lord. This session will assert that educating children at home is a primary means of discipling young hearts in the direction of faithful obedience and service to the Lord Jesus Christ.

Josh Poffenroth- Like a Man

A look into God’s Word, to define biblical manhood, and an encouragement to live like the Truest example of the REAL man, Jesus Christ. Exploring work and the blessing it is, and a challenge to “Work like a Man”. Ending up with an exhortation to, “Love like a Man”, explaining how Christian men should be leading the charge with Christian charity, and affecting culture as they truly love as Jesus commanded.

Dr. Ted Fenske – Gender, Sexuality & Identity

Gender, sexuality, and identity are all creational issues and clearly detailed in the Genesis account of the Bible. While we are undeniably sexual beings, an identity defined by sexuality is impoverished and incapable of meeting our core needs. By opposing God’s design for sexuality, the LGBT ideology and cultural movement has set into motion an unparalleled identity crisis, and at the same time, opened up a giant Gospel opportunity for the Christian community to witness God’s love. In considering our response to the issues raised by the LGBT culture, it is critical that the Christian community maintain the tension between the exclusive claims of Christ while simultaneously reaching out in compassion with the inclusive care of Christ. If we capitulate on Biblical truth, we forfeit the Gospel and its redeeming power; but if we fail to reach out in compassion and care, we miss the opportunity to witness and share the Gospel. This discussion is designed to provide a practical framework and accessible resources for equipping Christians to best navigate the tensions between maintaining an uncompromising Biblical sexual ethic and engendering a heart for a broken people.

Justin Peters – Woke Culture

Canada prides itself on being progressive and “awakened” to the social and racial injustices of the past. This “woke” culture pervades not only Canada, but the church.

This seminar will explain how this ideology, while using terms that sound good, actually upends truth and biblical fidelity. This is an idea that must be rejected by the church if the kingdom of Christ is to advance in truth and power.

Marty Moore – Light, Love and the Law: Living Out the Kingdom

In these days, it is essential that we understand the times and know what to do.  Yet too often, Canadians feel hindered in their mission of being light and loving in truth by their perception of the law.  In this talk, Marty will separate fact from fiction in the legal context, providing an informed perspective to disable fear and to empower you to live out your faith, which works by love.
