A note about breakouts and connection

The first breakout session is at 9:30 am, during the normal Connection time. In many cases, Connection Groups will host conference-related breakouts featuring their own teachers. Other Connection Groups will welcome guest speakers, some will combine with other groups, and some leaders will invite their groups to attend the breakout of their choice. Regardless of which Connection Group you normally attend, everyone is welcome to choose a breakout from the list.

Please check with your Connection Group leader for more information about which breakout your Connection Group may be attending.

 
 
 

traditional service • 8:30 am

John Meador

The Perfect World

God created things perfectly, but sin entered so quickly and morphed it into what we have today. It’ll be made perfect again when He returns, not before. This session will frame how we deal with the imperfect world we live in today.

Keynote 1 • 11 am

John Meador

The Perfect Man

In this session, we’ll look at the life of Jesus—how He identified, how He walked in obedience to the Father and not in the grips of any human passion.  

Keynote 2 • 2:15 pm

John Meador, Katie McCoy, Ricky Chelette

panel discussion

Join us for a panel discussion about gender issues, the church, and our response.
