Each of the four days of this conference saw resolute commitments of yielding to Christ—mending a broken friendship, reading the Bible, breaking up with a boyfriend, choosing purity, deferring to parents, applying for a summer missions project, or committing to a year long ministry internship.
God has used our annual Winter Conference, IndyCC, as a trail marker of believing God for greater things every year.
You would have loved listening to our students from last summer on Crossroads as they wrestled with yielding control of their plans to Christ. Many of them are pursuing Internships and full time ministry in the coming years.
We gain an interesting perspective putting on a conference from the back of the room. You and us, together, have the privilege of seeing God at work in these lives as well as ours. You share in these eternal rewards—in this lasting fruit.
Thank you for journeying with us as we help show our students a clearer picture of who God is and what His Kingdom is all about. Would you take a moment and pray for our students? Pray that they would do the hard work of daily choosing to live knowing that “God is Greater Than…” Thanks.
