at the W83 Ministry Center, 150 W. 83rd St.
This fall, the Redeemer churches will come together for a one-night event to learn, grow and prepare to be mobilized for missional living. We want to see a city renewed by the gospel, but in today’s culture, the challenges to sharing our faith or discipling someone can feel almost insurmountable.
Tim Keller will lead two sessions one on the principles of sharing our faith in today’s culture and the second on the practices for how we effectively share our faith in spite of tough questions and misconceptions about Christianity. Guest speaker Dr. Rebecca McLaughlin will share about four things Christians must reclaim, and everyone in attendance will receive a copy of her book Confronting Christianity. This is going to be a key part of this ministry year in preparing you for effective missional living.
We are excited to see how God will work through our growing family of churches in the coming years. But while we're thankful for all God has done, we're also hopeful that this is just the beginning of something much, much bigger. In 2016 thousands of Redeemer congregants said “I’m in” to help grow the gospel movement in NYC and to help bring gospel influence to every neighborhood and every part of the culture. We want to encourage everyone to deepen your commitment of living out the gospel and see you strengthen your ability to share your faith with your friends who aren’t Christian. As we look forward, we hope many of you bring friends into our community so that they can discover the hope and joy that only Jesus offers.
Although we are unable to offer childcare on site at the conference, we are able to offer a couple of options to offset babysitting costs. Please contact [email protected] BEFORE registering.
