A Good Day Spent Thinking of the Best Day!

Christians from a number of churches gathered as usual on the second Saturday in October at the Emmaus Christian Centre in Warrington (kindly lent). They were there for the 17th annual ‘God’s Glory: Our Joy’ conference.

This years theme was ‘Waiting and Working for Christ’s Return’. The main speaker was David Last of Forest Baptist church in Leytonstone.

2016 Conference sermons now available. Listen on-line or download the MP3 sermons.

The conference again proved a time of great fellowship with challenging Bible teaching from our speakers: David Last, Crawford Gribben and Stephen Rees.

Christians are facing greater pressure in the western world than for over 300 years There are perils coming from outside the church – persecution, militant atheism and mockery of our precious faith. There are also perils from within – false teaching, worldliness, and discouragement.

All these circumstances arise in the books that we are covering. The readings have been selected to encourage Christians like ourselves living in difficult times.

There is also the evangelistic challenge to any readers who are not yet believers. I have carefully selected daily Bible readings covering 366 days. Some of those who you will meet in these readings also faced hostility and persecution and triumphed in them.
