Every Student Sent Conference

kristin.madeja — Tue, 25 Jan 2011 23:41:20 +0000

He has made His Kingdom Message clear:
Go and make disciples of all nations.

Every Student Sent 2011 is a safe place to seek the Lord, asking Him to drive his message deeper into our hearts, receiving it with faith that moves us forward for His kingdom glory.

He has called you by name into His kingdom, desiring nothing less than whole-hearted obedience as you grow in a love relationship with Him.

But what does it really look like to live out His mission in a World that sends us so many opposing messages?

God’s character & message remain the same.

Have you wrestled with God over what it really means to receive this message? And to really be sent?

Details:

The conference is Friday, February 18th – Sunday, February 20th at the Marriot Indianapolis East. The cost is $95 for singles staying four to a room. For more information and to register visit the Every Student Sent Conference Website.
