Welcome & itinerary unshakable 2016
Luke Derbyshire - unshakable founder
The purpose of this conference is to equip and strengthen the modern Christian in a society that does not value God or His word. We are now seeing even greater pressure on the Church to water down the teachings of Christ in order to be ‘politically correct’ and to fit in with what ‘society’ says is acceptable. Christians are being pressured and tested from all sides, in the 21st Century, we need to be confident to stand up to these opposing pressures, to put our faith in Christ our saviour and fully rely on the infallible word of God.
We are blessed to have Nabeel Qureshi and Andy Banister from Ravi Zacharius Ministries with us today. Both are seasoned apologists/teachers who will be bringing challenging words that are equally practical and encouraging. As believers, it is our duty to know what we believe and also why we believe it, so sessions will be focused on the Trinity, The Reliability of the Bible and the Divinity of Jesus. Our Prayer is that you leave knowing that by putting your faith in Christ and believing whole-heartedly in his word we are Unshakable.
